<i>Xanthomonas indica</i>sp. nov., a non-pathogenic bacterium isolated from healthy rice<i>(Oryza sativa)</i>seeds from India

Abstract Two yellow pigmented bacterial strains were isolated from healthy rice seeds. The strains designated as PPL560Tand PPL568 were identified as members of genusXanthomonasbased on analysis of biochemical and 16S rRNA gene sequence retrieved from whole genome sequence. Isolates formed a distinct monophyletic lineage withX. sontiiandX. saccharias the closest relatives in the phylogenetic tree based on core gene content shared by reported species in genusXanthomonas. Pairwise ortho Average Nucleotide Identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridisation values calculated against other species ofXanthomonaswere below their respective cut-offs.In plantastudies revealed that PPL560Tand PPL568 are non-pathogenic to rice plants upon leaf clip inoculation. Absence of type III secretion system related genes and effectors further supported their non-pathogenic status. Herein, we proposeXanthomonas indicasp. nov. as novel species of genusXanthomonaswith PPL560T=MTCC13185 as its type strain and PPL568 as another constituent member..
