Bacterial soft rot is a disease complex caused by multiple genera of gram-negative and
gram-positive bacteria, with Dickeya and Pectobacterium being the most widely studied soft …

Many plant bacteriologists, if not all, feel that their particular microbe should appear in any
list of the most important bacterial plant pathogens. However, to our knowledge, no such list …

The Pectobacterium carotovorum species corresponds to a complex, including two
subspecies with validly published names, two proposed subspecies and two new species …

This paper briefly reviews research on the causative agents of blackleg and soft rot diseases
of potato, namely Pectobacterium and Dickeya species, and the disease syndrome …

Dickeya species (formerly Erwinia chrysanthemi) cause diseases on numerous crop and
ornamental plants world‐wide. Dickeya spp.(probably D. dianthicola) were first reported on …

The soft rot Enterobacteriaceae (SRE) Pectobacterium and Dickeya species (formerly
