The pathogen has been detected on two properties in south-east Victoria

Краткое описание

Data is lacking on the epidemiology of the disease. It has been observed that the pathogen is active between 10-20 deg;C and is limited by temperatures above 25deg C. Inoculation studies showed that the bacterium can infect the plant through natural apertures (stomata, lenticels) and wounds. Symptoms are usually expressed during spring and autumn when climatic conditions are favourable to the disease (cool temperatures, persistent rains, high humidity). It is suspected that the bacterium is spread by heavy rainfall, strong winds, animals and humans. Over long distances, trade of infected planting material can spread the disease

Опасность

Bacterial canker of kiwifruit, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae, has been detected on two properties in SE Victoria. It was detected during surveillance following detections in New Zealand during late 2010. The growers indicated that the disease symptoms had been present for a number of years, but it was thought to be Pseudomonas viridaflava, which is endemic in Australia. There has been no loss of vines or production. Two strains of Psa are recognised, commonly referred to as the 'Italian' and 'Asian' strains. The results of specific PCR testing and DNA sequence analysis have confirmed the identity of the Australian isolates as Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae (bacterial canker) Psa 2 haplotype, also known as the 'Asian' strain. This strain is a 'mild' strain. Recent diagnostics have also confirmed a stored sample from a survey conducted in Western Australia in 1992 to be the same strain as the recent detections - Psa 2 haplotype.
