Abstract
A Microviridae phage CLasMV1, was recently identified in “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” (CLas), the bacterium associated with citrus Huanglongbing (HLB). The CLasMV1 strain GDHZ11D (CP045566) exhibited a circular genome of 8,869 bp containing eight open reading frames (ORFs). Phages of CLas play crucial roles in regulating bacterial population diversity that have potential use for HLB control. However, knowledge of CLasMV1 population diversity is currently limited. In this study, 1,520 CLa
