First report of Pseudomonas aeruginosa causing basal stem rot of Solanum lycopersicum in China
Plant Disease 106 (5), 1515-1515
Abstract: Since 2015, tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum) grown Gansu Province, China, were observed with basal stem rot symptoms. These began with water-soaked lesions, which developed into a soft, watery, rot within 5 to 10 days. About 15% of the stems were affected in greenhouses. The bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa was isolated from the diseased plants. The identification was based on PCR analysis and nucleotide sequencing of the isolates. Pathogenicity of the isolates was demonstrated by inoculation and re-isolation.
