Complete genome sequence data of two Xanthomonas arboricola strains isolated from blueberry plants displaying bacterial leaf blight in Poland

We report here the complete genome sequences of two Xanthomonas arboricola strains isolated in 2013 from blueberry plants displaying bacterial leaf blight in Poland. These two strains – the new blueberry pathogens – were sequenced using a hybrid approach with short- and long-read technologies. The genomes will be used for further analysis of evolution within the species X. arboricola for determining if the strains constitute a new pathovar within the species and improving the molecular diagnostics of this relevant pathogen of blueberry
