The aim of this study was to establish a link between genetic diversity and the geographic origin of Pectobacterium strains belonging to three species-P. carotovorum, P. versatile, and P. odor-iferum-isolated from cabbage in Serbia by comparing their sequences with those of strains sourced from different hosts and countries in Europe, Asia, and Nor...
Potato is ranked as one of the most important food crops. Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum and blackleg and soft rot caused by different species from genera Pectobacterium and Dickeya are considered two of the most important disease of the potato. Biological control is the optimal strategy for controlling pathogens in crops generally...
The aim of this work was to identify and characterize the pectolytic bacteria responsible for the emergence of bacterial soft rot on two summer cabbage hybrids (Cheers F1 and Hippo F1) grown in the Futog locality (Bačka, Vojvodina), known for the five-century-long tradition of cabbage cultivation in Serbia. Symptoms manifesting as soft lesions on o...
In May 2016, an unusual appearance of leaf spot (water‐soaked, brown‐purple, round to angular surrounded with yellow halos) was observed on the leaves of wild cherry specimens grown in Rimski Šančevi, Vojvodina (North Serbia). The causal pathogen was isolated from the wild cherry diseased leaves on Nutrient Agar supplemented with 5% sucrose and ide...
Potato blackleg is frequently observed on the production fields in the Bačka region of Vojvodina province, which is one of the largest potato-growing areas in Serbia. This disease usually occurs during June and July. In July 2020, blackleg symptoms in the form of stem necrotic lesions, vascular discoloration, hollow stems, and wilting of whole plan...
Since 2011, the outbreaks of brown rot caused by Ralstonia solanacearum race 3, biovar 2, phylotype IIB-1 (R3/B2/PIIB-1) have significantly compromised potato production in Serbia. During six years of monitoring (2013–2018) among 3,524 potato tuber samples, 344 were found positive for brown rot disease. R. solanacearum R3/B2/PIIB-1 was isolated fro...
Bacterial canker and leaf spot caused by plant pathogenic bacterium
Pseudomonas is among the most destructive cherry diseases worldwide.
Nowadays in Serbia, sweet cherry production significantly increased and the
new plantations, mainly grown from imported planting material are being
raised every year. During spring, 2018 and 2019, occurrence of ba...
The aim of this study was to determine the influence of the origin and size of planting material on the mophological characteristics of seed tubers three potato cultivars. The objects of research were three varieties of potatoes: Aladdin, Newton and Desiree. The analysis of the morphological characteristics tuber showed highly significant (р<0.01)...
Blackleg outbreaks were noticed on three fields (total c. 100 ha) during two consecutive years (2018, 2019) in one of the main potato growing areas in Serbia (Bačka region, Vojvodina). The percentage of infected plants reached 40-70% with 10.5% to 44.7% yield reductions. From the three fields out of 90 samples Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. bras...
Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc), the causal agent of black rot disease of
cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.), is one of the most important bacteria which affect proper cabbage growth, leading to head weight and quality losses and thereby drastically reducing its marketing value. The pathogen is genetically diverse, which is ev...
The causal agent of soft rot disease associated with a cabbage outbreak in Semberija region, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in 2018 was identified and characterized. Symptoms appeared in the form of water-soaked lesions on leaves and specific odour. Disease incidence ranged from 20% to 30%. The causal pathogen was isolated on nutrient agar (NA), King's B...
