Carolina Pezo, Samuel Valdebenito, M. Fernanda Flores, Eduardo Oyanedel, Kooichi Vidal, Alexander Neaman & Patricia Peñaloza  Fuente: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s42729-020-00325-8?wt_mc=Internal.Event.1.SEM.ArticleAuthorOnlineFirst&utm_source=ArticleAuthorOnlineFirst&utm_medium=email&utm_content=AA_en_06082018&ArticleAuthorOnlineFirst_20200819 Abstract Seed quality has been an important factor in achieving high germination and uniform growth rates in agricultural crops. Meanwhile, pepper plants are moderately sensitive to salt stress at electrical conductivity (EC) in the nutrient solution in the range of 1.2–3.0 dS m−1. We are unaware […]

Complete genome of Xanthomonas arboricola pv. corylina strain A7 isolated from southern Chile

DESCARGA AQUÍ ABSTRACT The complete genome sequence of Xanthomonas arboricola pv. corylina A7 was obtained by a hybrid approach combining Pacbio and Illumina HiSeq sequencing data. A single circular chromosome of 5.1 mb with 65.47% G+C content was obtained. We identified 4344 coding sequences and some genes involved in copper resistance. To our knowledge, the data presented herein is […]
