Abstract:
The phytopathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas vesicatoria is the causative agent of bacterial spot disease in various Solanaceae family members. Here, we describe the complete genome sequence of XaF13, a novel filamentous phage that infects the phytopathogenic bacterium X. vesicatoria The 7,045-bp genome is predicted to encode 14 open reading frames, 7 of which are related to those of other filamentous Xanthomonas phages.
