Abstract

A new bacterial leaf spot disease on pepper seedlings
(Capsicum annuum cv. ‘Kurtovska kapija’) was observed
in 1995 in Macedonia. Pseudomonas bacteria
were isolated, belonging to LOPAT group Ia. Symptoms
similar to natural symptoms were reproduced following
inoculation on pepper seedlings. Some isolates
produced syringomycin and none of them were pathogenic
to lilac. In a numerical taxonomic study of five
pepper isolates in comparison with 58 pathovars of P.
syringae and 10 related species, the five pepper isolates
clustered in one phenon. Considering phenotypic characteristics,
serology, DNA relatedness and pathogenicity
tests, it was concluded that the pepper strains belong
to P. syringae pv. syringae.
Key words: Pseudomonas syringae, phenotypy, serology,
DNA-DNA hybridization, pathogenicity, numerical
taxonomy.
