Tomatoes encounter many pathogens, such as fungi and bacteria, which reduce the yield quality of plants lead to large losses in production. The application plant protection products (PPPs) is still an important most effective measure control diseases. However, use chemicals agriculture contributes environmental pollution biodiversity loss, it can also threaten non-target living organisms. Biological a widely accessible, environmentally safe, cost-efficient alternative for prevention suppression
Sooty blotch and flyspeck (SBFS) fungi colonize the surface wax layer of fruit apple, pear, persimmon, banana, orange, papaya, several other cultivated tree vine crops. In addition to colonizing crops, SBFS also grow on surfaces stems, twigs, leaves, a wide range wild plants. The disease occurs worldwide in regions with moist growing seasons. is regarded as serious by growers plant pathologists because it can cause substantial economic damage. smudges stipples often result downgrading from...
Xanthomonas euvesicatoria phage KΦ1, a member of Myoviridae family, was isolated from the rhizosphere pepper plants showing symptoms bacterial spot. The strain expressed antibacterial activity to all X. strains tested and did not lyse other spp., nor less related species. genome KΦ1 is double-stranded DNA 46.077 bp including 66 open reading frames an average GC content 62.9%, representing first complete sequence published for infecting xanthomonads associated with or tomato. highest...
Abstract The molecular identification and characterization of phytoplasmas from infected grapevines in four locations Serbia are reported. Phytoplasmas were detected identified by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified 16S rDNA. Grapevine yellows associated with three molecularly distinguishable phytoplasmas: Flavescence dorée (elm group: 16SrV‐C subgroup) present only the Župa Aleksandrovac region; Bois noir (stolbur 16SrXII‐A...
Abstract Fire blight is the most devastating disease affecting pome fruit production globally. The pathogen native to North America and was imported western Europe in 1950s, progressively spreading over continent ensuing decades. Previous phylogenetic studies have revealed extreme genetic homogeneity of outside its center origin, which makes epidemiological difficult. These are generally only possible using hypervariable regions genome such as those represented by CRISPRs (Clustered...
Due to an overlapping host range, similar symptomatology and many common characteristics, Pseudomonas syringae pathovars originating from stone fruits can easily be misidentified. In order select tests for rapid efficient differentiation of P. s. pvs. syringae, morsprunorum persicae, we studied the suitability differentiating potential some standard bacteriological molecular methods. Differentiation strains was performed using LOPAT, GATTa ice nucleation tests, nutrient sucrose broth growth...
The development of chronic inflammatory periodontal diseases is strongly correlated with the growth and maturation subgingival bacterial colonies. Consequently a major preventive goal should be control plaque formation. We conducted randomized, controlled trial to examine short-term effect an intensive instructional program without professional prophylaxis on gingival health 240, 11-14 year old school children. Plaque index (PlI), (GI), bleeding (BI) probing pocket depth (PD) were examined 4...
During spring and summer of 2008, 101 bacterial strains was isolated from the diseased pepper leaves collected different growing areas in Republic Serbia. The aim this research to characterize determine their taxonomic position according most recent nomenclature. Pathogenic, biochemical physiological characteristics bacteria were tested using standard bacteriological tests. pathogen races determined reaction differential varieties Early Calwonder (ECW), isogenic lines (ECW-10R, ECW-20R,...
During a 2002 survey in Serbia, samples of grapevine (Vitis vinifera) were collected from plants showing typical phytoplasma-like symptoms: leaf roll, redness, vein chlorosis and necrosis, absence lignification. The material was one viticultural region (Zupa Aleksandrovac), where the disease recorded 2000 showed an increasing percentage symptomatic every year. Total nucleic acid extracted separately midveins stem bark 10 2 asymptomatic plants. Phytoplasma infection detected using polymerase...
Anthracnose is a destructive disease of strawberry fruits in warm and continental climate. During 2004, the vicinity Valjevo, there were severe losses two plantations due to fruit anthracnose. Two fungal isolates, GG-6A GG-JUP recovered from stolons showing anthracnose symptoms. Based on morphological pathological characteristics, PCR analyses with specific primers reference species, isolate was identified as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, C. acutatum. This first identification acutatum...
Bacterial fruit blotch and seedling blight, caused by Acidovorax citrulli, is one of the most destructive diseases melon watermelon in many countries. Pathogen-free seed cultural practices are major pillars disease control. However, use bacteriophages as natural biocontrol agents might also contribute to management. Therefore, we isolated 12 specific A. from phyllosphere rhizosphere diseased plants. The phage strains were characterized based on their host range, plaque virion morphology,...
Tumorigenic strains of Agrobacterium spp. are responsible for crown gall disease numerous plant species. We present here draft genome sequences nonpathogenic nepotum strain 39/7(T) (CFBP 7436(T), LMG 26435(T)), isolated from tumor on Prunus cerasifera, and tumorigenic sp. KFB 330 8308, 28674), galls raspberry.
