Identification of Storage Insects and Mites
We understand that every case is different and with our wealth of experience you have come to the right place to identify your insect you may have found in your imports.
Bacterial spot - Xanthomonas spp. - tomato or pepper (10,000 seeds)
Test to detect Xanthomonas spp. (Xanthomonas euvesicatoria, Xanthomonas gardeneri, Xanthomonas perforans and Xanthomonas vesicatoria) in tomato and sweet pepper seeds
Bacterial canker - Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis - Seed (10,000 seeds)
Detection of the pathogenic bacteria Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis in tomato seeds.
Xanthomonas hortorum pv. carotae - Carrot seed (10,000 seeds)
Xanthomonas hortorum pv. carotae, more commonly known as the bacterial blight of carrot.
Black Rot - Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris - Brassica - Seeds only (10,000 seeds)
Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, more commonly known as black rot, can be found across a range of host plants, infecting all cultivated Brassicas. This includes cabbage, cauliflower and mustard varieties.
Bean blight seed test - Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli (5,000 seeds)
Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli, more commonly known as Bean Blight. It produces similar symptoms on leaves, pods, stems and seeds.
Halo blight seed test - Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. phaseolicola - bean (5,000 seeds)
Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. phaseolicola, is a pathogenic bacterium responsible for Halo Blight in a range of bean species.
Pantoea stewartii subsp. stewartii - maize seeds (400 seeds)
Test for bacterial wilt caused by the bacterium Pantoea stewartii in Maize seeds.
Diagnose My Plant
We understand that every case is different and often you may not know the likely cause of the problem you have found is. For these cases we offer an examination of your sample to assess the most probable cause.
Fatty acid profiling (Bacterial culture identification)
Fatty Acid Profiling (FAP) is used to identify bacterial isolates and is accredited to UKAS ISO17025 standards. The profiles generated are compared against commercially available FAP libraries as well as our own in-house libraries generated using isolates from the National Collection of Plant Pathogenic Bacteria (NCPPB).
DNA Sequencing (Bacterial culture identification)
DNA sequencing of 16S rDNA or housekeeping genes can be performed to identify bacterial isolates to a species or pathovar level. Testing can be performed on fresh isolates sent in to our labs or as an additional service to identify bacteria isolated from a sample sent in for testing.
Pea bacterial blight - Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi - Pea seed (5,000 seeds)
Test for Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi, more commonly known as pea bacterial blight. Infection causes water-soaked spots which may coalesce into larger lesions.
