First Report of Shot-Hole on Flowering Cherry Caused by Burkholderia contaminans and Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae

Shot-hole disease (SH) is one of the most common and important diseases affecting flowering cherry (FC; Prunus × yedoensis Matsumura; Somei-yoshino) trees in South Korea every year, resulting in premature defoliation and reduced flowering in the following year. However, pathogens associated with the...

Zusammenfassung:Shot-hole disease (SH) is one of the most common and important diseases affecting flowering cherry (FC; Prunus × yedoensis Matsumura; Somei-yoshino) trees in South Korea every year, resulting in premature defoliation and reduced flowering in the following year. However, pathogens associated with the disease remain unknown, which has rendered disease management challenging. Here, the pathogens associated with SH, their biochemical characteristics, and their host range were elucidated. Detached-leaf and in planta assays revealed that two biofilm-forming bacteria-namely, Burkholderia contaminans and Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae-caused SH of FC trees. These pathogens were recorded for the first time as the causes of SH of FC trees in South Korea. Additionally, the two pathogens induced similar disease symptoms in several stone fruit belonging to the genus Prunus, including peach (Prunus persica), plum (P. salicina), and apricot (P. mume), with peach being the most susceptible. These results indicate that B. contaminans and P. syringae pv. syringae caused SH on FC trees and presented a broad spectrum of hosts. Furthermore, Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni, the causative agent of leaf spot on stone fruit, incited brown spots and shot holes on FC leaves. Therefore, FC trees are susceptible to infections by various pathogenic bacteria, including B. contaminans, P. syringae pv. syringae, and X. arboricola pv. pruni. These findings will be of great importance as a reference for effective management of SH in the face of possible cross-infection between Prunus spp. in the future
