Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Huanglongbing (HLB) is a bacterial disease that affects citrus trees and is considered the most severe citrus disease in the world. The three HLB-associated ‘ Ca. Liberibacter’ species harbor prophage regions which have been described to play critical roles in their evolution and biology. In this study, we assembled and characterized the accessory genome of the first circular de novo ‘ Candid...
