Abstract:
Bacterial leaf blight of Syngonium podophyllum caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. syngonii is recorded for the first time in Argentina. The first symptom of the disease was an interveinal watersoaking of leaves, the tissues became chlorotic and finally necrotic over areas of about 4 cm. The identification of the causal microorganism was based on disease symptoms, morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics and pathogenicity test.
