“…However, a recent report from Japan indicates that the genetic diversity of P. carotovorum subsp. brasiliense isolates was lower than P. wasabiae and D. dianthicola isolates (Nakayama et al., 2021). The current study indicates genetic variability among the strains with respect to dnaX and PFGE analyses, as well as for pathogenicity, confirming the genetic diversity within Pbr previously reported from Europe.…”

and Dickeya spp., a complex of species, cause soft rot diseases in potato, including pre-emergence seed rot, blackleg, foliage wilt, and tuber soft rot. The severity and type of disease symptoms vary with local climate, and disease expression in the field may be particularly favoured under the warm-climate conditions that prevail in Israel (Tsror (Lahkim) et al., 2009(Lahkim) et al., , 2013(Lahkim) et al., , 2017. Latent infections with Dickeya and Pectobacterium spp. in seed lots may affect potato crops and cause yield losses in both spring and winter seasons, when growth conditions promote bacterial development (Tsror (Lahkim) et al., 1999(Lahkim) et al., , 2012.
