Genome Sequence of the Potato Plant Pathogen Dickeya dianthicola Strain RNS04.9

Abstract

Dickeya dianthicola is one of the causative agents of soft rot and blackleg diseases, which are currently identified in European countries in a wide range of crops. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of D. dianthicola strain RNS04.9, which was isolated from a potato plant with blackleg symptoms in 2004.
