Journal of General Plant Pathology 80 (2), 164-168
Abstract: Bacterial leaf spot disease of hemp was observed in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan in 1982 and characterized by necrotic lesions ca. 1-2 mm diameter on leaves with a yellow halo 2-3 mm wide. In this report, we describe the pathological, physiological and genetic properties of the causal bacterium. Our results indicated that this bacterium is identical with Xanthomonas campestris pv. cannabis reported in Romania.
