Interpretive Summary: Production of cereal crops is hindered by several diseases. Bacterial leaf streak, caused by Xanthomonas translucens, is a major disease of wheat and barley with few options to control or prevent the disease. In this work, we provide complete genomes for two bacterial leaf streak isolates that were collected from barley in an important grain production region of North Dakota in 2017. This resource will facilitate further genetic research into understanding how these bacteria successfully cause disease in wheat and barley.

Technical Abstract: Xanthomonas translucens causes the disease bacterial leaf streak in several cereal crops and grasses. Here we report the complete genome sequence of two isolates of X. translucens pv. translucens isolated from barley in an important cereal crop production region.
