A study was undertaken for characterization and identification of the soft rot causing bacterial pathogens of onion. Bacterial pathogens were isolated from soft rotted stored onions of different varieties and locations of Bangladesh. Altogether 73 bacterial isolates were isolated from soft rotted onions. Among them, twelve soft rot-positive isolates were selected for characterization and identification on the basis of more virulence. Physiological and biochemical tests were performed following standard methods for characterization and identification of selected soft rot bacterial isolates. Seven isolates namely O-03, O-18, O-69, O-72, O-130, O-156 and O-180 were identified as Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum (E. carotovora subsp. carotovora), two isolates O-101 and O-118 were identified as E. chrysanthemi and three isolates O-05, O-14 and O-15 were the members of Burkholderia cepacia.Bangladesh J.

Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum strain PccS1, a bacterial pathogen causing soft rot disease of Zantedeschia elliotiana (colored calla), was investigated for virulence genes induced by the host plant. Using a promoter-trap transposon (mariner), we obtained 500 transposon mutants showing kanamycin resistance dependent on extract of Z. elliotiana. One of these mutants, PM86, exhibited attenuated virulence on both Z. elliotiana and Brassica rapa subsp. pekinensis. The growth of PM86 was also reduced in minimal medium (MM), and the reduction was restored by adding plant extract to the MM. The gene containing the insertion site was identified as rplY. The deletion mutant ΔrplY, exhibited reduced virulence, motility and plant cell wall-degrading enzyme production but not biofilm formation. Analysis of gene expression and reporter fusions revealed that the rplY gene in PccS1 is up-regulated at both the transcriptional and the translational levels in the presence of plant extract. Our results suggest that rplY is induced by Z. elliotiana extract and is crucial for virulence in P. carotovorum subsp. carotovorum.

Phytopathogenic bacteria belonging to the Pectobacterium and Dickeya genera (soft-rot Pectobacteriaceae) are in the focus of agriculture-related microbiology because of their diversity, their substantial negative impact on the production of potatoes and vegetables, and the prospects of bacteriophage applications for disease control. Because of numerous amendments in the taxonomy of P. carotovorum, there are still a few studied sequenced strains among this species. The present work reports on the isolation and characterization of the phage infectious to the type strain of P. carotovorum. The phage Arno 160 is a lytic Podovirus representing a potential new genus of the subfamily Autographivirinae. It recognizes O-polysaccahride of the host strain and depolymerizes it in the process of infection using a rhamnosidase hydrolytic mechanism. Despite the narrow host range of this phage, it is suitable for phage control application.
