| Abstract/Contents: | "A previously undescribed pathovar of Xanthomonas campestris, pv poannua (XcP) will, upon artificial inoculation, cause a lethal systemic wilt of annual bluegrass (Poa annua, ABG) a difficult-to-control turf weed. Before conducting large scale tests in commercial turf, it was necessary to characterize the infection biology, host range and ecology of this organism. Isolates of this bacterium have now been found throughout the United States and it appears that it is a common, cryptic colonizer of grasses. Though related to the European pathovar, X.c. poae, XcP can be distinguished on the basis of its specific host range and FAME profile. Of > 300 species and cultivars tested, only a few grasses are attacked, even under optimal conditions for disease. Under field conditions, only Poa annua ssp. annua of ABG is affected. The rate of systemic colonization and control of ABG are closely tied to temperature. Only limited spread of XcP is seen in field settings. This organism is an excellent candidate for use as a biocontrol agent." |
