Abstract excerpt
Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni (Xap) is a well-known phytopathogenic bacterium responsible for bacterial spot in Prunus species. Although cherry has historically been listed as a potential host for this pathogen, the occurrence of Xap bacterial spot in cherry is rare. In the present study, two bacterial strains isolated from cherry in Montenegro and initially identified as Xap were subjected to genomic and...
