DISEASE: Bacterial blight and bacterial leaf streak

HOST: Rice

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (bacterial leaf streak) causes water-soaked streaks with yellow ooze (left side), and X. oryzae pv. oryzae (bacterial blight) causes brown streaks that have turned white (right side).

DISEASE: Bacterial decline

HOST: Papaya

Bacterial decline of papaya, historically called St. Croix decline, was thought to be caused by a fungus. This picture shows a papaya with dead top and side branches, a severe stage of the disease.

DISEASE: Bacterial decline

HOST: Papaya

Water-soaked papaya stem in St. Croix. Dark, water-soaked, greasy lesions occur on stems and leaves. The causal agent differs somewhat from descriptions of Erwinia papayae D strains in Micronesia.

DISEASE: Bacterial decline

HOST: Papaya

Bacterial invasion of leaf veins and adjacent tissues of papaya in Micronesia. This disease has also been called canker, dieback, and blight.

DISEASE: Bacterial decline

HOST: Papaya

Complete destruction of papaya plantation in Micronesia. Only a severely damaged trunk remains.

DISEASE: Bacterial leaf streak

HOST: Rice

Severely diseased leaves with light brown streaks.

DISEASE: Bacterial leaf streak

HOST: Rice

Brownish lesions with tiny droplets of bacterial ooze, resulting from artificial inoculation of the pathogen.

DISEASE: Bacterial leaf streak

HOST: Rice

Copious droplets of bacterial ooze on infected leaf margin (right), typical of advanced stage of disease. Healthy part of leaf (left) has clear guttation fluid.

DISEASE: Drippy gill

HOST: Mushroom

Drippy gill is characterized by small dark spots on gills with drops of bacterial ooze at the centers. Severe infection results in slimy areas and collapse of gills.
