Dissection of Innate Immunity in Tomato and Tolerance to Bacterial Wilt in Solanaceae species
… the receptor of a 22-amino acid long epitope of bacterial flagellin, called flg22. In this project, alleles of FLS2 of different tomato cultivars were sequenced and compared to each other to get insight into natural selection acting on FLS2 and to identify residues important for ligand binding. …

The Spatial and Temporal Distribution and Management of Tomato Bacterial Wilt on Virginia's Eastern Shore
… to the National Agricultural Statistics Service. Bacterial wilt of tomato, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum (Smith) and Yabucchi et al., is the most devastating disease of tomato on the ESV. Four 'observational trials' were conducted on the ESV over three growing seasons to determine the temporal …

Managing bacterial wilt, caused by Erwinia tracheiphila, on muskmelon with early control of striped cucumber beetle ( Acalymma vittatum (F)), and through varietal selection
… tons and market value of $7.6 million in 2015. Bacterial wilt of cucurbits, which is caused by Erwinia tracheiphila (E. F. Smith), and vectored by striped cucumber beetle (<em>Acalymma vittatum</em> (F)), is one of the most serious diseases of muskmelon that influences muskmelon quality and …

Managing Weeds and Soilborne Pests with Fumigant and Non-Fumigant Alternatives to Methyl Bromide
… onto resistant rootstocks was tested for bacterial wilt and nematode management in tomato. In the absence of a soil fumigant, TIF suppressed yellow nutsedge better than VIF. TIF increased fumigant retention compared to VIF at similar application rates. Reduced fumigant application rates …

The Potential Interaction of Salmonella enterica and Ralstonia solanacearum in Tomato Plants
… contamination, the devastating plant disease, bacterial wilt, caused by the phytopathogen Ralstonia solanacearum threatens the sustainability of ESV tomato production. Bacterial wilt is present in most ESV tomato fields and causes devastating yield losses each year. Due to the ESV\'s endemic …

Risposte di resistenza a batteri fitopatogeni di importanti specie coltivate indotte da molecole segnale di diversa natura
… as to evaluate their efficacy against southern bacterial wilt of tomato (Ralstonia solanacearum) and grapevine crown gall (Agrobacterium vitis). A virulent strain of R. solanacearum race 3 was inhibited by the antagonist on plate. When the pathogen was inoculated 48 h after their application to …

Linking Semiochemical Ecology and Spatial Dynamics to Improve Integrated Pest Management of Striped Cucumber Beetle, Acalymma vittatum
… by Erwinia tracheiphila, the causal agent of bacterial wilt. This early vulnerability makes it important to reduce beetle activity before aggregations develop on young crop plants. This dissertation examined striped cucumber beetle semiochemical attraction, spatial capture patterns, …

Stewart's and Goss' Wilts of Corn: Yield Reduction and Genetics of Resistance
Stewart's bacterial wilt caused by Erwinia stewartii ((Smith)Dye) and Goss' wilt caused by Clavibacter michiganense subsp. nebraskense (Schuster et al., 1973) are important bacterial diseases of corn. These diseases can affect corn plants at any stage of the plant growth. Plants infected at …

Characterizing maize resistance to Clavibacter nebraskensis
Clavibacter nebraskensis (Cn) causes Goss’s bacterial wilt and leaf blight, a major disease of maize. Infected crop residue is the primary inoculum source and infection can occur via wounds or natural openings, such as stomata or hydathodes. The use of resistant hybrids is the primary control …

Developing methods of strip cropping cucumbers with rye/vetch
… mulch than in no-till plots in both years, and bacterial wilt, transmitted by cucumber beetles, was reduced in no-till in 1999. Similarly, rye/vetch habitat plots had a higher diversity of Carabidae species (in both habitat areas and crop rows) before rolling or flail mowing, and higher …

Role of the Leucine-responsive Regulatory Protein during growth of the bacterial corn pathogen Pantoea stewartii subspecies stewartii in the xylem environment
… of the U.S. known as the Corn Belt where the bacterial disease Stewart's Wilt reduces crop yield. Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii (Pss) is transmitted into corn via the corn flea beetle insect vector, Chaetocnema pulicaria. As the beetle feeds on the corn plant leaves, Pss deposited in …
