Genome sequence of the plant-pathogenic bacterium Dickeya dadantii 3937

Abstract

Dickeya dadantii is a plant-pathogenic enterobacterium responsible for the soft rot disease of many plants of economic importance. We present here the sequence of strain 3937, a strain widely used as a model system for research on the molecular biology and pathogenicity of this group of bacteria. © 2011, American Society for Microbiology.
