Clavibacter michiganensis

Bacterial canker

Symptoms

Leaflets of affected plants show temporary and later permanent wilting. Light streaks develop at the junction of the petiole and stem. Streaks extend down the internode and upwards along the petiole. Canker-like openings may develop on stems, petioles and leaf midribs. When the stem is cut longitudinally, a creamy-white, yellow or brown line is visible along the phloem. Green fruits develop water-soaked spots surrounded by a white halo.
