ALVAREZ, Elba  y  IGLESIA, Aleika. DIAGNOSTIC DEVELOPMENT FOR WILD FIRE SURVEILLANCE. Rev. Protección Veg. [online]. 2007, vol.22, n.3, pp. 137-141. ISSN 2224-4697.

Information about the characterization and diagnostic of wild fire was compiled. This bacterial disease, exotic for Cuba, is caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci. The species Pseudomonas syringae is traditionally divided into pathovars depending on the host range and symptoms. For its study, different phenotypic and genotypic methods are used. Such methods allow the traditional taxonomic confirmation of this pathovar within the species. Serological and molecular techniques such as: ELISA tests, immunofluorescence, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are also used for the characterization and detection of the bacterium. Such techniques are very useful and sensible for the diagnostic.

Palabras clave : Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci; rep-PCR; pathogenicity; serology.
