Pectinolytic bacteria associated with potato soft rot and blackleg in South Africa and Zimbabwe

2012-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Soft rot and blackleg can cause severe economic losses in potato production in South Africa and Zimbabwe depending on climatic conditions. The aim of the study was to identify the predominant bacteria causing potato soft rot and blackleg in these countries. Samples, comprising of stems and tubers from potato plants with blackleg and soft rot symptoms were collected from 2006–2009 from potato production areas where...
