Association of a Phloem-Limited Bacterium with Yellow Vine Disease in Cucurbits

Abstract: Since 1991, a new disease of cucurbits in central Texas and Oklahoma, designated yellow vine, has resulted in the decline and plant death of watermelon, cantaloupe, squash, and pumpkin. Affected plants are characterized by leaf yellowing, phloem discoloration, and plant collapse. Year-to-year variation in disease incidence has ranged from spotty outbreaks to complete crop loss in early-planted watermelon fields. A systematic investigation to determine the causal agent of the disease included pathogen isolation… Show more
