| samsonia erythrinae gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from bark necrotic lesions of erythrina sp., and discrimination of plant-pathogenic enterobacteriaceae by phenotypic features. | bacterial strains isolated from diseased erythrina (erythrina sp.) trees in martinique (french west indies) were studied using phenotypic tests, 16s rdna sequence analysis and dna-dna hybridization. numerical analysis of phenotypic characteristics showed that these strains formed an homogeneous phenon among plant-pathogenic enterobacteriaceae, and gave useful and updated information for the identification of these bacteria. results of dna-dna hybridization indicated that strains from erythrina b ... | 2001 | 11491325 |
