DISEASE: Bacterial heart rot and fruit collapse

HOST: Pineapple

Necrosis and rot at bases of central heart leaves (whorl) with dark borders at margins between diseased and healthy tissues.

DISEASE: Bacterial kernel blight (Leaf blight)

HOST: Barley

Dark, brown discolored kernels at the embryo end and posterior surface.

DISEASE: Bacterial leaf blight

HOST: Barley

Diseased barley plants with typical bleaching of flag leaves. Initial symptoms are water-soaked lesions that later coalesce. Eventually, the entire leaf becomes necrotic and edges roll inward.

HOST: Barley

Black chaff is characterized by water-soaked and darkened glumes on barley heads and streaks and stripes on leaves.

DISEASE: Black chaff (Bacterial leaf streak)

HOST: Barley

Leaf with linear, water-soaked lesions that turn necrotic and brown. Flakes of dry bacterial exudate are apparent on the lesions. The pathogen also causes black glume of barley.

DISEASE: Pink disease

HOST: Pineapple

Infected pineapple slices; effect of heating (right) and not heating (left).

DISEASE: Pink disease

HOST: Pineapple

Two clones (A and D) showing different stages of infection. Second and fourth fruits (left to right) have been heated. Disease originally attributed to Gluconobacter oxydans and Enterobacter agglomerans and later to Pantoea citrea.
