Southern hybridization and PCR for specific detection of phytopathogenic Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis
1995-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis is the causal agent of bacterial wilt and canker in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum). Specific detection of this important bacterial pathogen was possible using Southern hybridization with DNA-probes derived from plasmid-borne genes, celA encoding an endocellulase and pat-1 involved in pathogenicity. The celA probe differentiated the C. m. subsp. michiganensis, insidi...
