Title
Studies on Pantoea citrea, the Causal Agent of Pink Disease of Pineapple
J.‐S. Cha; C. Pujol; A. R. Ducusin; et al. Journal of Phytopathology 1997. doi:10.1111/j.1439-0434.1997.tb00407.x
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation The Pantoea citrea isolate from diseased pineapple fruit has features identical to the type strain of P. citrea.
- Observation P. citrea induces production of compounds in pineapple that turn colored on cooking.
- Intervention effect The pink colour in pineapple is not induced by the other tested bacteria.
- Observation P. citrea elicits the hypersensitive response in tobacco.
- Observation G. oxydans and A. aceti do not elicit the hypersensitive response in tobacco.
- Intervention effect Complementation with a 3.8 kb genomic DNA fragment of P. citrea restores pink colour in the avirulent mutant CMC6 in pineapple.
- Observation The locus conferring pink colour activity has been located on the P. citrea chromosome.
