Abstract
Here, we announce the draft genome sequence of “ Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” strain GZQL4, which was collected from Guizhou, China. The GZQL4 strain has a genome size of 1,234,029 bp, a G+C content of 36.5%, 1,204 predicted open reading frames, and 53 RNA genes.

Population Diversity of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ and Diaphorina citri in Sichuan: A Case Study for Huanglongbing Monitoring and Interception

Abstract
Citrus huanglongbing (HLB) is present in 10 provinces in China and is associated with ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas), which is transmitted by the Asian citrus psyllid (Diaphorina citri, ACP). To date, HLB and ACP have expanded to Yibin city of Sichuan Province, posing an imminent threat to the citrus belt of the upper and middle reaches of the Yangtze River, an important late-maturing citrus-producing area in China. To understand the epidemiological route of CLas and ACP in newly in

Two Unique Prophages of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ Strains from Pakistan

Abstract
‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas) is a pathogen causing Huanglongbing (HLB, yellow shoot disease), which is highly destructive to citrus production. The CLas strains harbor prophages. We identified two unique prophages, designated as P-PA19-1 and P-PA19-2, in CLas strain PA19 from Pakistan using next-generation sequencing analysis. P-PA19-1 prophage has high sequence similarity (identity: 78.23%) at the early-gene region of prophage SC1 (Type 1), but it is significantly divergent in th

Genome Sequence Resources of Two ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ Strains from Pakistan

Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas) is an unculturable, phloem-restricted αProteobacteria, associated with citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), which is one of the most destructive diseases in citrus production worldwide. Here, we present the genome sequences of CLas strains PA19 and PA20 from HLB-affected kinnow trees in Multan, Punjab Province, Pakistan. The CLas genomes of PA19 and PA20 comprise 1,224,156 bp and 1,226,225 bp, respectively, with an average GC content of 36.4%. Both harbored the
