TAXONOMIC COMPOSITION OF THE JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE BACTERIOSIS AGENTS
Abstract
Taxonomic affiliation of the 21 phytopathogenic bacterial cultures isolated from the Jerusalem artichoke tubers with signs of bacteriosis was established based on results of examination of morphological and physiological-biochemical properties and data of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Examined strains were identified as Pseudomonas sp., Stenotrophomonas sp., Serratia sp., Ewingella americana, Xanthomonas sp., Rahnella sp. It was shown that analyzed cultures produce extracellular enzymes (proteases, cellulases, lipases, amylases), involved in the development of bacteriosis in plants.
