Abstract
In April 2002, a serious Anthurium disease broke out in a commercial plantation in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province, P.R. China. Eventually, brown to blighted areas were often observed together with striking yellow zones along leaf margins. Yellow, mucoid colonies were consistently isolated from infected tissues. The strains reproduced the typical symptom after spraying or rubbing on both Anthurium and Dieffenbachia leaves. The colonies re-isolated from inoculated leaves were as same as those from infected tissues. The pathogen was preliminarily identified as genus Xanthomonas, based on bacterial morphological, cultural, physiological and biochemical properties. The pathogen was further identified as Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. dieffenbachiae (McCulloch and Pirone) Dye by carbon source utilization and pathogenicity tests.
