Aims: To test interactions between pathogenic strains of Streptomyces turgidiscabies, S.
scabies and S. aureofaciens. To study biological control of S. turgidiscabies and S. scabies …

Common and netted scabs are two disfiguring bacterial diseases of potato tubers, caused by
various groups of Streptomyces species. Common scab, caused primarily by Streptomyces …

The influence of tuber-borne pathogenic Streptomyces on potato common scab incidence in
daughter tubers was examined under micro-plot conditions. Visually healthy tubers, surface …

Background Soil microorganisms can mediate the occurrence of plant diseases. Potato
common scab (CS) is a refractory disease caused by pathogenic Streptomyces that occurs …

Scab disease significantly damages potato and other root crops. Streptomyces scabiei, S.
acidiscabiei, and S. turgidiscabiei are the best-known causal agents of this disease. We …

The aim of this study was to develop and validate a HybProbes‐based real‐time PCR assay
targeting the trp B gene for specific identification of Streptomyces scabies and Streptomyces …

Aims The primary objective of these experiments was to reduce pathogenicity and virulence
of endemic soil pathogenic Streptomyces strains that cause potato common scab (CS) using …

A PCR‐based diagnostic method was developed for direct detection from tuber lesions of
pathogenic Streptomyces causing common scab of potato. Primers were designed to amplify …

The severity of common scab (CS) of potatoes has been correlated with multiple
environmental factors. This study aimed at separating the effect of factors related to local …

Antibiotic-producing Streptomyces spp. have shown potential in biocontrol of potato scab
caused by Streptomyces scabies. However, results have been inconsistent among field …
