Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation The completed genomes support inclusion of the Xanthomonas strains in the X. citri species group.
- Recommendation Phylogenetic analysis and identification of a novel plant host suggest creating the new pathovar Xanthomonas citri pv. lagerstroemium.
- Observation Koch’s postulates were refulfilled for the Xanthomonas strains causing leaf spot on crape myrtle.
- Observation A collection of Xanthomonas strains was isolated from angular leaf spot lesions on crape myrtle in North Carolina from 2014 to 2023.
