title: Draft Genome Sequence of the Plant Pathogen Dickeya zeae DZ2Q, Isolated from Rice in Italy.
abstract: Dickeya zeae is an emerging rice (Oryza sativa) pathogen causing bacterial foot rot. Related pathogens affect maize (Zea mays) and potato (Solanum tuberosum) and a variety of important ornamental and floral plants. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of D. zeae DZ2Q, an isolate obtained from rice grown in Italy.
