Краткое описание

In April 2018, Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (citrus canker) was detected in the Northern Territory and Western Australia on potted West Indian lime plants linked to retail nurseries.

In April 2021, after a successful eradication program citrus canker has been declared to be absent from all Australian states and territories.

Опасность

Citrus canker is a contagious disease caused by the bacteria Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri, which can affect all citrus species and cultivars. The disease presents as lesions or cankers at infection sites and severely impacts fruit quality and yield. Premature fruit drop can occur, along with defoliation, twig dieback and general tree decline. In severe cases, it can lead to tree death.
