Abstract

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, the causal bacterium of bacterial blight limits rice production globally. Currently, genome sequences for only a few X. oryzae pv. oryzae isolates are available from India. Based on the next-generation sequencing and single-molecule sequencing in real-time technologies, we present here the complete genome sequence of X. oryzae pv. oryzae race 4, a highly virulent member of the Indian X. oryzae pv. oryzae population that has been extensively used in different research studies. The genome data will contribute to our understanding of X. oryzae pv. oryzae genomic features and pave the way for research on rice–X. oryzae pv. oryzae interactions.
