Draft Genome Sequences of 284 Xanthomonas citri pv. citri Strains Causing Asiatic Citrus Canker. [PDF]
High-quality Illumina assemblies were produced from 284 Xanthomonas citri pv. citri pathotype A strains mostly originating from the Southwest Indian Ocean region, a subset of which was also sequenced using MinION technology. Some strains hosted chromosomally encoded transcription activator-like effector (TALE) genes,
