pantoea ananatis is an important pathogen causing bacterial center rot in onion. isolated strains from onion soft rot bulbs based on morphological characteristics were tested for hypersensitivity reaction on tobacco. pathogenic strains underwent some biochemical tests which detected the presence of p. ananatis, based on rna16s sequencing, this result was confirmed. symptoms were reproduced by i...

In March 2016, grey mould disease was observed on mango (Mangifera indica) in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan. During the flowering period, caused a brown coloration of petals and peduncles accompanied by white aerial mycelium. As symptoms progressed, rot panicle parts mould, resulting fruit set failure. A fungus isolated from discoloured inflorescence into pure culture. Based morphology analyses gly...

Dickeya zeae is a phytopathogenic bacterium causing soft rot diseases in a wide range of economically important crops. Here we present the draft genome sequence of strain ZJU1202, which is the causal agent of rice foot rot in China. The draft genome will contribute to epidemiological and comparative genomic studies and the quarantine of this devastating phytopathogen.

abstract common root rot induced by bipolaris sorokiniana, is one of the most important diseases of wheat. chemical control of this disease is difficult because of it is a soil-born pathogen, so that, application of other methods is useful to reduce disease level especially resistance cultivars. in this research, were examined reaction of some wheat cultivars and lines against common root rot i...
