Increase of Glycoalkaloid Content in Potato Tubers by Greening as a Method to Reduce the Spread of Pectobacterium and Dickeya spp. in Seed Production Systems [PDF]
Dickeya and Pectobacterium species are the causal agents of blackleg and soft rot diseases. This article explores the possibility of using the glycoalkaloids (GAs) naturally produced by the potato tuber after the greening process as a blackleg control ...

An Efficient Triplex TaqMan Quantitative PCR to Detect a Blackleg-Causing Lineage of Pectobacterium brasiliense in Potato Based on a Pangenome Analysis [PDF]
P. brasiliense is an important bacterial pathogen causing blackleg (BL) in potatoes. Nevertheless, P. brasiliense is often detected in seed lots that do not develop any of the typical blackleg symptoms in the potato crop when planted.
