Abstract Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. actinidiae KKH3 is an Enterobacteriaceae bacterial pathogen that infects kiwi plants, causing canker-like symptoms that pose a threat to the kiwifruit industry. Because the strain was originally isolated from woody plants and possesses numerous plant cell wall-degrading enzymes, this draft genome report provides insight into possible bioconversion applications, as well as a better understanding of this important plant pathogen.
