International audience. The bacterial plant pathogen Xanthomonas hyacinthi is the causal agent of yellow disease of Hyacinthus and other ornamental plant genera. There is no available complete genome for X. hyacinthi, limiting basic research for this pathogen. Here, we release a high-quality complete genome sequence for the X. hyacinthi type strain, CFBP 1156. Single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing with a mean coverage of 306× revealed two contigs of 4,918,645 and 44,381 bp in size. This was the first characterized plant-disease-causing species of Xanthomonas and this genome provides a resource to better understand the biology of yellow disease of hyacinth.
