ABSTRACT
Ralstonia solanacearum is a bacterial wilt pathogen of Solanum lycopersicum. Its pathogenicity is the result of coevolution during continuous interaction with its host plants under given biotic and abiotic environments. To elucidate clues for pathogenicity of our WR-1 strain, its genome sequence was analyzed.
ABSTRACT
Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a member of the Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC), which is composed of three species and diverse subspecific groups. Some strains cause bacterial wilt in Solanum lycopersicum; others are beneficial for their hosts. Herein, we present the complete genome sequence of an RSSC strain, Sw698, beneficial for S. lycopersicum growth.
ABSTRACT
Ralstonia solanacearum is a notorious pathogen of bacterial wilt on Solanum lycopersicum. Most isolates from diseased tomato tissues are biovar 3, and their genomes are publicly available; however, information on biovar 4 strains is limited. Here, the complete genome sequence of R. solanacearum Bs715, a biovar 4 strain, is presented.
