Mountain-Ash (Sorbus spp.) as a Potential Host Plant of Fire Blight (Erwinia amylovora) in the Russian Federation

https://doi.org/10.69536/FKR.2020.12.82.001

Abstract

The species of the genus Sorbus sensu lato (mountain-ash) are well-known and quite widespread host plants of fire blight Erwinia amylovora (Burrill) Winslow et al. Nevertheless, there have been no officially proven data about the pest detection on the mountain-ash in the Russian Federation. This work presents the survey results of Sorbus aucuparia L. and cultivated varieties of mountain-ash plantations in 7 regions of the European part of Russia. The combined samples and the subsamples of separate parts of plants have been analyzed by 4 PCR-based tests, the sequencing method, as well as the plating method. The DNA of Erwinia amylovora has been reliably detected in Moscow and the Moscow region. The dynamics of pathogen development in various parts of mountain-ash plants during the growing season has been studied. The reports on the main role of Erwinia amylovora in the development of necrotic damage of mountain-ash plants in the Moscow region have not been confirmed.
