Name changes for bacteria
Recent taxonomic revisions of phytopathogenic bacteria have led to several name changes. The new names for bacteria of quarantine importance are given below (previous names are indicated in brackets):
Burkholderia caryophylli (Pseudomonas caryophylli)
Burkholderia solanacearum (Pseudomonas solanacearum)
Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii (Erwinia stewartii)
Xanthomonas arboricola pv. corylina (Xanthomonas campestris pv. corylina)
Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni (Xanthomonas campestris pv. pruni)
Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri)
Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. dieffenbachiae (Xanthomonas campestris pv. dieffenbachiae)
Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli (Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli)
Xanthomonas translucens pv. translucens (Xanthomonas campestris pv. translucens)
Xanthomonas vesicatoria (Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria)
