Xanthomonas euvesicatoria pv. euvesicatoria (XANTEU) is a gram-negative bacterial pathogen responsible for bacterial spot disease primarily in tomato and pepper plants. As a member of the Solanaceae host range, it poses a significant threat to vegetable crops worldwide. The bacterium spreads through contaminated seeds, infected transplants, splashing water,
and agricultural tools. Environmental conditions such as high humidity and warm temperatures favor its rapid proliferation. Infected plants develop water-soaked lesions on leaves, stems, and fruits, which can expand and lead to tissue necrosis. This disease not only reduces crop yield and marketability
but also increases the risk of secondary infections, making XANTEU a serious concern in commercial agriculture.
