Abstract excerpt
Bacterial speck disease, which is caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato, is an economically important disease on tomato. In the present study, we show that P. syringae pv. tomato DC3000 is a pathogen of tomato seedlings, an aspect of pathogen biology that has not been previously investigated. This resulted in the development of a virulence assay on tomato seedlings that has several advantages over...
