LetgenPro|Real Time PCR Kit 300 rxn (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzicola)

X. oryzae pv. oryzicola is a Gram-negative, encapsulated rod with a single polar flagellum bacterium. Colonies of this bacteria are fairly slow-growing, usually pale-yellow, round, smooth, entire, domed and mucoid. X. oryzae pv. oryzicola causes narrow, dark-greenish, water-soaked, interveinal streaks of various lengths, initially restricted to the leaf blades. In its advanced stages, the disease is difficult to distinguish from leaf blight caused by X. oryzae pv. oryzae, but lesion margins remain linear rather than wavy as for the latter.
