## Abstract

Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Xanthomonas euvesicatoria pv. polysciadis strain Pgu1PT, a phytopathogenic bacterium causing necrotic leaf lesions on Polyscias guilfoylei in Taiwan. The genome consists of a 5,129,423 bp circular chromosome (GC content: 64.8%) and a 53,818 bp circular plasmid (GC content: 62.1%).
