Bacteriosis

WHO CAUSES IT?
The pathogens Xanthomonas sp. and Pseudomonas sp. are bacteria that cause diseases known as bacteriosis in a wide variety of plants. These bacteria are found in soil, water and on the surface of plants. They begin their infectious cycle by entering the plant through wounds, stomata or hydathodes. Once inside, they multiply in the intercellular space and produce enzymes that break down cell walls, causing necrosis and other damage to plant tissues. These bacteria can survive on plant debris, contaminated seeds and in soil, facilitating reinfection in the following growing season. Dispersion occurs through irrigation water, rain splash, wind, insects and contaminated tools. In addition, certain species can form biofilms that protect them from adverse conditions and phytosanitary treatments.
SYMPTOMS
The disease caused by Xanthomonas sp. and Pseudomonas sp. in plants it manifests with symptoms that significantly affect the health and productivity of the plants. These bacteria cause leaf Taches, cankers on stems and fruits, and root rot. The initial infection usually begins as small watery Taches that expand and necrotize, developing into dark brown or black Taches with yellow halos. In severe infections, they can lead to defoliation, reduced growth and, in extreme cases, plant death.
- Watery Taches on leaves that expand and necrotize.
- Yellow halos around the Taches.
- Cankers on stems and fruits.
- Root rot.
- Premature defoliation.
- Reduction of plant growth.
- Wilting and collapse of the plant.
- Death of the plant in severe infections.

Recommendations
- Use certified pathogen-free seeds to avoid the introduction of bacteria into the crop.
- Implement crop rotation to interrupt the life cycle of bacteria in the soil.
- Maintain an adequate distance between plants to improve air circulation and reduce humidity.
- Avoid sprinkler irrigation, which can spread bacteria through splashing water.
- Remove and destroy remains of infected crops and plants to reduce the source of inoculum.
- Disinfect garden tools and equipment regularly to prevent the spread of bacteria.
- Apply treatments with appropriate bactericides according to technical recommendations and carry out preventive applications.
- Regularly monitor plants for early detection of symptoms and apply timely control measures.
- Promote the use of plant varieties resistant to bacteriosis.
- Maintain adequate soil and nutrient management to strengthen the natural resistance of plants to infections.
