A remarkable shift in our understanding of plant‐pathogenic bacteria is underway. Until
recently, nearly all research on phytopathogenic bacteria was focused on a small number of …

Various criteria that have been used in the development of a system of classification of
Pseudomonas species, as well as in the precise circumscription of the genus on phenotypic …

In the first section of this comprehensive reference book full information on nomenclature,
synonymy, characteristics, type cultures, host ranges, symptoms and geographical …

Broth cultures of suspensions of Pseudomonas syringae isolated from decaying alder
leaves (Alnus tenuifolia) were found to freeze at very warm (-1.8 to-3.8 C) temperatures. The …

Pseudomonas syringae is a plant pathogen well known for its capacity to grow epiphytically
on diverse plants and for its ice-nucleation activity. The ensemble of its known biology and …

Many names of plant pathogenic bacteria will not be included in the Approved Lists, 1980, if
the lists contain only the names of valid species. It is proposed that pathogens which do not …

The Pseudomonas syringae phylogenetic group comprises 15 recognized bacterial species
and more than 60 pathovars. The classification and identification of strains is relevant for …

A total of 48 pathovars of Pseudomonas syringae and eight related species were studied by
DNA-DNA hybridization (S1 nuclease method) and ribotyping. The existence of nine …

listed in Table 1. Fourteen strains were isolated from kiwifruit in 1984, in the Shizuoka …

Leaves from gold kiwifruit plants, Actinidia chinensis, with dark brown angular spots and
flowers that were brown and wilted, first yielded non-fluorescent bacterial colonies following …
