“…The total world production of strawberries has reached up to 8,337,099 tons (Roshdy et al 2021). Several pathogen microorganisms attack strawberry plants and cause severe diseases in different developmental stages in either nursery or field production such as root rot, wilt, leaf blight, spots and fruit rot which reduce the quantity and quality of strawberry productivity, resulting in both yield and economic losses (Ragab et al 2017) Serrano (1928) first discovered Pantoea ananatis on pineapple, where it caused fruitlet rot in the Philippines. The bacterium causes a wide range of disease symptoms on both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants.…”
