The Changing Face of Bacterial Soft-Rot Diseases

Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2018
Bacterial soft rot is a disease complex caused by multiple genera of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, with Dickeya and Pectobacterium being the most widely studied soft-rot bacterial pathogens. In addition to soft rot, these bacteria also cause blackleg of potato, foot rot of rice, and bleeding canker of pear.

Bacterial Soft Rot

1979
Bacterial soft rots are best known as diseases of fleshy plant structures such as potato tubers, fruits, and flower bulbs. They are also diseases of stems and flowers and other above-ground parts. Perhaps no other group of related diseases causes more damage to vegetables. Soft rots attack a large number of plants.

Bacterial Soft Rot of Avocado Fruit

Nature, 1954
SOFT-ROT diseases of avocado fruit are recorded in the literature as associated with fungi. So far, the only bacterial disease reported to affect avocado fruit is a dry rot caused by Pseudomonas syringae Van Hall1. In December 1953, however, a bacterial soft-rot disease in avocado fruits was found in Israel on several fruits picked from a single tree ...

Determination of the potential for development of bacterial soft rot of potatoes

American Potato Journal, 1977
A method has been devised for assessing the potential hazard of soft rot development in potatoes. Tubers are placed in a mist chamber at 20 C (68F), a film of water is maintained on the tuber, and the extent of decay is assessed after 5 days. The soft rot potential determined in this way is intended as apractical indication of potential storage hazard,

Studies on the initiation of bacterial soft rot in potato tubers

Potato Research, 1975
Non-inoculated whole tubers rot readily under anaerobic conditions when their surface is maintained moist in a water-saturated atmosphere. Rotting is reduced under otherwise similar but aerobic conditions, but there is some rotting under anaerobic conditions even if their surface is dry.

Etiology of Bacterial Soft Rot and Corm Decay in Saffron

Phytopathology®
Saffron ( Crocus sativus) is the world's most expensive spice. The plant is propagated vegetatively through corms. Infection of saffron corms with soil-dwelling pathogens would impact reproduction of the plant, resulting in significant yield losses.

The effect of antibacterial products on bacterial soft rot of potatoes

Potato Research, 1981
To test antibacterial products for their ability to prevent soft rot they were applied to potatoes which were then incubated either in an atmosphere containing

Bacterial soft rot of Agaricus bitorquis

Plant Pathology, 1991
A new pathovar of Pseudomonas gladioli, pv. agaricicola is described to accommodate a bacterium pathogenic to Agaricus bitorquis. The bacterium causes a rapid soft rot of cultivated mushrooms at temperatures above

Bacterial soft rot of banana

Bacterial soft rots of banana and plantains involve two different diseases caused by related but distinct pathogens: rhizome soft rot or head rot by Pectobacterium carotovorum. subsp. carotovorum and pseudostem wet rot and rhizome rot - in some parts of the world called rhizome necrosis and corm rot-, caused by Dickeya paradisiaca.

Studies on bacterial soft rot of celery in Victoria

Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, 1976
The causal organism of bacterial soft rot of celery was isolated and characterized, and its control was studied. The causal organism was identified as Erwinia carotovora var. carotovora (Jones) Dye. It was also pathogenic on potato in the glasshouse, causing atypical black leg symptoms.
