Analysis of Fire Blight Shoot Infection Epidemics on Apple
Fire blight of apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.) can be found throughout the United States and many other countries and is a serious problem on trees of susceptible apple cultivars (9). Fire blight is caused by the bacterium Erwinia amylovora and occurs also on pear, quince, Rubus spp., and several other rosaceous hosts. The initial inoculum in an established orchard comes from overwintering can...
متن کاملVirulence characteristics accounting for fire blight disease severity in apple trees and seedlings.
The gram-negative bacterium Erwinia amylovora is the causal agent of fire blight, the most destructive bacterial disease of rosaceous plants, including apple and pear. Here, we compared the virulence levels of six E. amylovora strains (Ea273, CFBP1367, Ea581a, E2002a, E4001a, and HKN06P1) on apple trees and seedlings. The strains produced a range of disease severity, with HKN06P1 producing the ...
متن کاملExpression of Biphenyl Synthase Genes and Formation of Phytoalexin Compounds in Three Fire Blight-Infected Pyrus communis Cultivars
Pear (Pyrus communis) is an economically important fruit crop. Drops in yield and even losses of whole plantations are caused by diseases, most importantly fire blight which is triggered by the bacterial pathogen Erwinia amylovora. In response to the infection, biphenyls and dibenzofurans are formed as phytoalexins, biosynthesis of which is initiated by biphenyl synthase (BIS). Two PcBIS transc...
متن کاملresults of screening on 89 apple cultivars for fire blight resistance using usda system in karaj conditions
fire blight disease caused by erwinia amylovora is a destructive disease of pome fruits including apple worldwide. use of resistant cultivars is the most efficient method of disease control. in the present research, we investigated genetic resistance of 89 local and imported commercial apple cultivars in natural contaminated conditions to the bacterial disease using beltsville scoring system (u...
متن کاملInvestigation of Some Vegetative and Reproductive Characteristics of Five Apple Cultivars in ‘Guttingen V’ System
Orchard intensification is motivated by the desire to produce fruit early in the life of the orchard to rapidly recover establishment costs. Intensification is possible using dwarfing rootstocks that control tree size, induce early cropping and produce large quantities of fruit compared to the amount of wood produced. Therefore, this study attempts to compare some yield and fruit properties of ...
