Pectobacterium atrosepticum is a narrow host range pectinolytic plant pathogenic bacterium causing blackleg of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) worldwide. Till present, several P. atrosepticum genomes have been sequenced and characterized in detail; all of these genomes have come, however, from P. atrosepticum strains isolates from plants grown in temperate zones, not from hosts cultivated under different climatic conditions. Herewith, we present the first complete, high-quality genome of the P. atrosepticum strain Green1 isolated from potato plants grown under subarctic climate in Greenland. The genome of P. atrosepticum strain Green1 consists of one chromosome of 4,959,719 bp., with a GC content of 51% and no plasmids. The genome contains 4531 annotated features, including 4179 protein-coding genes (CDSs), 22 rRNA genes, 70 tRNA genes, 8 ncRNA genes, 2 CRISPRs and 126 pseudogenes. We believe that the information of this first, high-quality, complete, closed genome of P. atrosepticum strain isolated from host plant grown in subarctic agricultural region will provide resources for comparative genomic studies and for analyses targeting climatic adaptation and ecological fitness mechanisms present in P. atrosepticum.
