  abstract = {{X}anthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola ({X}oc) causes bacterial leaf streak ({BLS}) of rice. {T}his disease represents a major constraint for rice production, which is a crop feeding more than half of the world's population. {X}oc was first described in 1918 in the {P}hilippines and is prevalent in southeast {A}sia. {T}oday, {BLS} is also omnipresent in both {E}ast- and {W}est-{A}frica, where the disease was first reported in the early 1980s. {T}he appearance of {X}oc in {A}frica decades after its first report in {A}sia suggests that the disease could have been introduced from {A}sia to {A}frica. {S}trict conservation of five transcription activator-like ({TAL}) effectors in whole-genome sequences of 10 strains of {X}oc including three from {W}est-{A}frica and seven from {A}sia also support this hypothesis. {E}ast-{A}frica, especially {M}adagascar, where the disease was first described in 1985 is located at the interface between {A}sia and {A}frica, hence representing an interesting region to explore the link between strains from {A}sia and {W}est-{A}frica. {I}n this study, we did the following: (i) reconstructed the genome of a historical {X}oc strain from a herbarium specimen of rice showing symptoms of {BLS} that was sampled in {M}adagascar in 1931, 50 years before the first description of the disease, and (ii) sequenced nine new modern strains, including five from {M}adagascar and {E}ast-{A}frica. {T}he analysis of those new genomes along with previously published ones shed light within the evolutionary and epidemiological history of {X}oc.},
