Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Bacteria were absent at the advancing rot front.
- Observation One isolate was apparently undescribed and proposed as Pseudomonas pomi.
- Observation The other two isolates were considered identical to Ps. melophthora Allen & Riker.
- Observation All three isolates grew at pH 5.0 in media and in apples with juice pH 3.5.
- Association The squared rot-front distance was directly proportional to time after inoculation for each isolate.
- Observation The isolates invaded fruit at the stalk and eye ends and through pricked skin.
- Intervention effect Spraying leafy shoots or flowers caused no apparent infection.
- Intervention effect Hypodermic inoculation of apple shoots produced no visible reaction.
