What is it about?
Bacterial spot (BS) is the most common and one of the most destructive diseases of tomato and pepper plants in Bulgaria. Several Xanthomonas species are known to cause BS, but the global distribution and genetic diversity of these species are not well understood

Why is it important?
Collection of 100 BS-causing strains, isolated during the period of 1985-2012 from different tomato cultivars and weeds associated with tomato production areas from 11 geographic regions in Bulgaria, were screened for genetic diversity by genomic DNA restriction
Perspectives
Two haplotypes for Xanthomonas vesicatoria and one haplotype for Xanthomonas gardneri strains were found.
