Interspecies exchange of a mobile genetic element during a plant disease outbreak

Abstract excerpt
The evolutionary processes underlying disease outbreaks remain unknown for most bacterial plant pathogens. We sequenced an outbreak of lethal wilt disease in Martinique caused by two distantly related lineages in the Ralstonia solanacearum species complex.
