Xanthomonas pruni (syn. Xanthomonas campestris pv. pruni, syn. Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni) is a bacterial disease of almost all Prunus.
Hosts
Distribution
Unknown in California almond cultivation until detection in Sacramento and northern San Joaquin Valley in the spring of 2013.[1] Also found in almond cultivation in Victoria, Australia.[2]
Detection
Palacio-Bielsa et al., 2011 provides a SYBR Green I-based assay[3]: 90
Management
Copper[2] and mancozeb are recommended in California for almonds[4] and have served well elsewhere.[2] No pesticides are registered for almonds anywhere in Australia.[2]
Phage therapy has been heavily studied for X. pruni and some treatments have been very successful.[5][6]
Resistance
Resistance to copper has occurred.[4] No copper resistance as of August 2017[update] in California.[4] Rotation or tank mixing is recommended to forestall resistance.[4]
