Ecology of plant pathogenic xanthomonads

  • Chapter

Abstract

The ecology of Xanthomonas involves the mutual relationships of the bacterium with biotic and abiotic environments. Increase, stationary and decline phases of growth of the bacterium result from the relationships. Special environmental conditions are also involved in the epidemiology of the bacterium. The purpose of this chapter is to review the interaction of Xanthomonas with various environmental factors.
