The genotypic properties of Pseudomonas lupini — bacterial agent of lupin spottiness

L. A. Dankevich, R. I. Gvozdyak

The bacterial chromosomes G+C content and nucleotides chain of 16S RNA of Pseudomonas lupini Beltyukova, Korolyova strains have been determined for the first time. On the basis of these results and earlier obtained genotypic properties of Pseudomonas lupini the strains majority belongs to Pseudomonas syringae. In our opinion the only exception is strain 8531, which on the basis of its genotype belongs to Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. glycinea.

Key words: Pseudomonas lupini, Pseudomonas syringae, Pseudomonas savastanoi, G+C content, nucleotides chain of 16S RNA.
