Abstract

Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' is an insect-transmitted, phloem-restricted a-proteobacterium associated with huanglongbing. Here, we provide the whole genome sequence of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' strain ReuSP1 from its insect vector Diaphorina citri (Hemiptera: Liviidae) collected in La Réunion. The genome is composed of 1,230,064 bp and has a 36.5% G+C content. This study reports the first 'Ca. L. asiaticus' genome sequence from La Réunion, which will add to 'Ca. L. asiaticus' genome resources and help elucidate our understanding of the introduction pathway into La Réunion.
