For about 50 years, until 2017, a citrus canker eradication programme was carried out in this region.

To this end, we sequenced and analysed 758 <i>Xcc</i> genomes sampled in the São Paulo citrus belt, together with 730 publicly available <i>Xcc</i> genomes from around the world. Our phylogenomic analyses show that these genomes can be grouped into seven major lineages and that in São Paulo, lineage L7 is dominant. Our time estimate for its appearance closely matches the date when citrus production expanded. L7 can be subdivided into lineages L7.1 and L7.2. In our samples, L7.2, which we estimate to have emerged around 1964, is by far the most abundant, showing that the eradication programme had little impact on strain diversification. On the other hand, oscillations in the estimated effective population size of L7.2 strains over time closely match the shifts in the eradication programme. In sum, we present a detailed view of the genomic diversity of <i>Xcc</i> in the world and in São Paulo, the largest such effort in terms of a number of genomes for a crop pathogen undertaken so far.

Furthermore, the number of cases and hospitalizations increased with age. Second, we found a high diversity of NVC strains, which suggested that the usefulness of WGS studies might be limited in waterborne outbreak situations to find the infectious source.
