Abstract
Abstract A bacterium, isolated from infected tubers of calla ( Zantedeschia spp.), was confirmed as a soft rot pathogen by completion of Koch's postulates and was identified as Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora (Jones 1901) Bergey et al. 1923. This paper confirms the identity of E. carotovora subsp. carotovora as the cause of bacterial soft rot of this important ornamental plant in New Zealand.
