Dirasat. Reduction of olive knot disease by a bacteriocin from Pseudomonas syringae pv. Initial caution is advised until application is shown not to cause leaf injury in local conditions (Young, 2004). Bacterial suspensions of not more than 10,000,000 c.f.u./ml are inoculated into wounds on stems of actively growing olive and oleander plants. Oliv, 67(30):38-40, Mugnai L, Giovannetti L, Ventura S, Surico G, 1994. savastanoi on the phylloplane. Olive knot disease has become more common and serious, in part due to increased plantings of the Manzanillo olive, a highly susceptible cultivar, and cultural … It is difficult to differentiate P. savastanoi pv.

First report of Pseudomonas savastanoi causing bacterial leaf spot of Mandevilla sanderi in Slovenia. Genetic characterization by fluorescent AFLP of Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. The shape of crowns of very old trees damaged by hail and subsequently badly infected by bacterial knot can be transformed from the traditional inverted truncated cone tapered to the base, to erect truncated cones tapered from the base. First report of olive knot caused by Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. Fungal infections, including leaf spot and Botryosphaeria dieback, affect oleander plants. Preliminary results on the response of olive cultivars to artificial iniculation with Pseudomonas syringae subsp. An intermediate response was shown by the cultivars Ascolana tenera, Cipressino, Itrana, Kalamata, Leccino, Manzanilla, Nocellara del Belice, Nocellara Etnea, Nostrale di Rigali, Pasola di Andria, Picholine, Toscanina and Termite di Bitetto. First report of olive knot caused by Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. Centralbl. Dirasat. savastanoi. In: Civerolo EL et al., eds. Initially, the knots are small (a few millimetres in diameter), pale-green excrescences that expand, sometimes reaching several centimetres in diameter, and gradually turn greenish-brown or brown. on leaves of two olive (Olea europea L.) varieties. (2010), can be used for rapid detection of P. savastanoi pv. Dordrecht, The Netherlands: Kluwer Academic Publishers, 17-28, Sutic D, Dowson WJ, 1963. Olive knot can become established if diseased plants are introduced to a new area and not promptly eradicated. Phytopathology, 85(7):740-745, Balaz J, Popovic T, Vasic M, Nikolic Z, 2008. Olive knot disease is endemic in several olive-growing areas, but the economic impact of the disease is poorly understood and generally under-estimated. savastanoi (Sisto et al., 2001) showed that cultivars Carolea, Bella di Spagna, Cerasella, Cima di Melfi, Coratina, Corniola, Dolce Agogia, Leucocarpa, Maiatica di Ferrandina, Nolca and San Felice had a moderate response to artificial infection, whereas Cellina di Nardò, Frantoio, Morcona, Nociara, Ogliarola and Pendolino showed a high response to infection. Bulletin OEPP, 23(3):423-427, Varvaro L, Surico G, 1978. DNA relatedness among the pathovar strains of Pseudomonas syringae subsp. nerii. The bacterium is systemic, resulting in the development of knots or bacterial gall on oleander flowers, leaves and stems; and stunted, deformed seed pods. Common diseases of soybean in the Mid-Atlantic region. II, Bd. eds. Detection of Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. Like most websites we use cookies. Attention to tree development in early years offers the best approach to managing disease damage. When several references are cited, they may give conflicting information on the status. In: Iacobellis et al. University of California, Publication, 3353:107, Therios I, 2008. The practice of harvesting by beating olive branches with sticks is a recognized way of transmitting the pathogen to wounded tissue (Panagopoulos, 1993). The reactions of Olive, Oleander and Ash, cross inoculated with some strains and forms of Pseudomonas savastanoi (Smith) Stevens. The influence of pests and diseases on the quantity and quality of olive oil production. savastanoi (ex Smith) subsp.
