Authors: Davis, Robert E and Shao, Jonathan and Zhao, Yan and Gasparich, Gail E and Gaynor, Brady J and Donofrio, Nicole

Spiroplasma citri causes stubborn disease in Citrus spp. and diseases in other plants. Here, we report the nucleotide sequence of the 1,599,709-bp circular chromosome and two plasmids of S. citri strain R8-A2(T) This information will facilitate analyses to understand spiroplasmal pathogenicity and evolutionary adaptations to lifestyles in plants and arthropod hosts.
