Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the broad-sense heritability reaction to bacterial leaf spot (Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni), in peach tree populations obtained from directed crosses. Disease severity and defoliation of the genotypes were evaluated in field conditions, with posterior measurement of the healthy leaf area duration (HAD). The observed average heritability (0.51) indicates that the use of the evaluated genitors can be effective for the development of cultivars with higher resistance to the disease.

Cercospora leaf spot of olive (CLSO), caused by Pseudocercospora cladosporioides, is one of the most important foliar diseases of olives worldwide. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a wide range of fungicides on mycelial growth and conidial germination of P. cladosporioides in vitro, and to evaluate the effect of several fungicides, application timings and management strategies (conservative and risky) to control CLSO under field conditions. Of the studied fungicides, strobilurin compounds and benomyl were the most effective active ingredients, followed by folpet, captan and maneb, in inhibiting mycelial growth and conidial germination. The pyraclostrobin + boscalid treatment was effective under field conditions, even without the application of supplementary copper. Treatments conducted in October or March were more effective than those conducted in May. Management strategies based on the author’s experience reduced copper applications up to 32.0% and 50.0% (conservative and risky strategy, respectively) in comparison to the reduction with the traditional strategy, without increasing CLSO incidence. This work provides useful information about effective formulations against CLSO and a reduction in unnecessary fungicide applications in an effort to implement IPM in olive orchards under Mediterranean conditions.

During 1995 and 1996, bacterial leaf spots severely damaged fields of kale, spinach mustard, and turnip in Oklahoma. Symptoms were small, brown, necrotic spots with irregular edges surrounded by chlorotic halos. Lesion margins were often water-soaked on the abaxial surface. The spots enlarged and coalesced, causing extensive leaf yellowing and necrosis. Nineteen strains of a fluorescent Pseudomonas spp. were isolated from symptomatic plants. LOPAT tests and carbon source oxidation using Biolog GN MicroPlates were used to classify the strains as P. syringae. Cluster analysis of carbon source oxidation profiles for the local strains and selected reference strains of P. syringae pv. maculicola and pv. tomato produced one group with 79.5% similarity. In spray inoculations, all local strains caused chlorotic or water-soaked lesions on collards, kale, cauliflower, and tomato. A few local strains caused necrotic lesions on mustard. Most local strains caused one of the three lesion types on turnip and spinach mustard. Reference strains of P. syringae pv. maculicola caused similar symptoms. All but three of the local strains produced coronatine in vitro. The local strains were thus classified as P. syringae pv. maculicola, the cause of bacterial leaf spot of crucifers. Two distinct groups of P. syringaepv. maculicola were identified by repetitive sequence-based polymerase chain reaction (rep-PCR) with both REP and BOXA1R primers. Three subgroups within each group were further identified using the BOXA1R primer. Except for two strains of P. syringae pv. tomato which were pathogenic on crucifers, the pathovars maculicola and tomato had different genetic fingerprints. The pathogen was recovered from seven of ten fields sampled during 1994 to 1996. In five of the fields with P. syringae pv. maculicola, pathovars of Xanthomonas campestris were also isolated from lesions forming a bacterial disease complex. This is the first report of bacterial leaf spot caused by P. syringaepv. maculicola on leafy crucifers in Oklahoma.

Different extracts prepared from wastes (barks, branches, needles, or leaves) of different trees (grey alder, balsam fir, American larch, red maple, sugar maple, white spruce, black spruce, jack pine, white pine, quaking aspen, sweet cherry, and northern red oak) were investigated for their potential use as antibacterial agents for the management of lettuce varnish spot and bacterial leaf spot caused by Pseudomonas cichorii (Swingle) Stapp and Xanthomonas campestris pv. vitians (Brown) Dye, respectively. Extracts were first screened for their antibacterial activities against P. cichorii and X. campestris pv. vitians using the in vitro disk diffusion assay. Based on the diameter of the inhibition zone, ethanol (95%) extract prepared from sugar maple autumn-shed leaves (SMASL) and aqueous ethanol (50%, v/v) extracts prepared from SMASL and from sugar maple green leaves showed the strongest antibacterial activities. Ethanol (95%) SMASL extract was further investigated for its efficacy to manage bacterial diseases when applied on lettuce plants grown in the greenhouse. Foliar application of ethanol (95%) SMASL extract at a concentration of 3.2 g L−1 was shown to significantly (P ≤ 0.05) reduce bacterial leaf spot severity compared with the control without causing phytotoxicity symptoms that could prevent the commercial marketing of the lettuce. Ethanol (95%) SMASL extract (1.6 and 3.2 g L−1) was also shown to significantly reduce varnish spot severity in one experiment out of two. This study identifies for the first time the possibility of exploiting SMASL to manage bacterial diseases affecting horticultural crops.

Xanthomonas Arboricola

Bacterial leaf spot (BLS), caused by Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni, is one of the most important diseases in Brazilian peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] orchards and all over the world. The main objective of this study was to evaluate for BLS sensitivity of peach genotypes. Evaluations of thirty genotypes were carried out during the onset of the disease, for incidence, severity and defoliation, in field conditions. Pearson's correlations between the percentage of defoliation and leaf severity rating were performed. Genotypes 'Conserva 985', 'Conserva 871', 'Conserva 1129', and 'Tropic Snow', as resistance sources, and 'Conserva 1153', 'Bonão', 'Conserva 1125', and 'Atenas', as susceptible to BLS, were submitted to detached-leaf bioassay and greenhouse evaluation. The peach genotypes showed different reactions to the BLS, and none was immune to the pathogen. 'Conserva 985' and 'Conserva 1129' confirmed resistance responsiveness while 'Conserva 1153', 'Conserva 1125' and 'Atenas' were found susceptible for the detached-leaf bioassay.
