WHO CAUSES IT?
Bacterial pustule, caused by the bacteria Xanthomonas campestris pv. glycines, is an important disease that affects soybean crops in many regions of the world. This bacteria is capable of causing significant damage to soybean plants, which can result in economic losses for farmers.
SYMPTOMS
In soybeans, bacterial pustule produces symptoms that include the appearance of necrotic lesions on the leaves, stems and pods of the plant. These lesions usually have a sunken appearance and may be surrounded by a yellowish halo. Over time, the lesions can expand and cause premature defoliation, which can reduce crop yield.


TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
25°C - 30°C
70% - 90%
TRANSMISSION ROUTES
Infected seeds, plant remains, irrigation water, agricultural tools, insects.

Recommendations
To prevent and control bacterial pustule in soybean crops, it is important to implement integrated pest management practices. This includes the use of pathogen-free seeds, crop rotation, weed control and the application of specific bactericides at critical moments in the crop cycle.
