Systemic colonization of potato plants resulting from potato haulm inoculation withDickeya solaniorPectobacterium parmentieri

P. Kastelein et al.

Summary: In two glasshouse experiments, it was found that Dickeya solani and Pectobacterium parmentieri could penetrate and colonize different parts of potato plants after leaf infection. The infection rate was higher for wounded leaves and increased with higher inoculum densities. Following haulm destruction, P. parmentieri was able to transmit from destroyed haulms via soil into progeny tubers, while D. solani could not.

Interaction between Dickeya dianthicola and Pectobacterium parmentieri in Potato Infection under Field Conditions

Tongling Ge et al.

Summary: This study examined the presence of Dickeya dianthicola and P. parmentieri in potato samples collected in Northeastern USA, and conducted field trials to investigate their interaction and disease severity. The results showed that D. dianthicola was more virulent than P. parmentieri, but co-inoculation of both species led to increased disease severity compared to single-species inoculation.

The Pectobacterium pangenome, with a focus on Pectobacterium brasiliense, shows a robust core and extensive exchange of genes from a shared gene pool

Eef M. Jonkheer et al.

Summary: This study utilized a pangenomic approach to analyze the genetic diversity of Pectobacterium genus, revealing the composition and genetic variations at the genomic level. Results showed that Pectobacterium genus has a high proportion of core genes, as well as specific genes associated with virulence. The research indicates that evolution in Pectobacteria involves dynamic processes such as gene acquisitions, genome rearrangements, and gene losses.

Early Emergence of Dickeya solani Revealed by Analysis of Dickeya Diversity of Potato Blackleg and Soft Rot Causing Pathogens in Switzerland

Jacques Pedron et al.

Summary: Potato blackleg and soft rot caused by Pectobacterium and Dickeya are devastating bacterial diseases globally. In Europe, Pectobacterium spp. were historically the main causative agents, but in Switzerland, there was a higher occurrence of Dickeya species, particularly in the 1980s. The genomic comparison of early D. solani isolates from the 1990s with strains from the 2000s outbreak in Europe showed minimal differences, suggesting no major changes in virulence genes over time.
