Genome Sequence Resource Of 'Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus' From Diaphorina Citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Liviidae) From La Reunion

'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' is an insect-transmitted, phloem-restricted alpha-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 Reunion. 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 Reunion, which will add to 'Ca. L. asiaticus' genome resources and help elucidate our understanding of the introduction pathway into La Reunion.
