Abstract:The bacterial leaf spot of Primula vulgaris was reported from forest locations in Mazandaran province, Iran in 1995. The causative bacterium was initially identified as Xanthomonas campestris based on sequences of ITS and 16S rRNA regions. On the basis of sequences of gyrB and dnaK housekeeping genes, the isolates resembled strains of Xanthomonas hortorum. The present study was performed to clarify the taxonomic status of the incitant bacterium. Samples of P. vulgaris with leaf spot symptoms were collected fro… Show more
