Abstract:
Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum (Smith), is one of the chief severe diseases of potato in warm temperate regions, tropics and subtropics of the world. The study was conducted to isolate and identify bacterial pathogens and select the most resistant cultivars and avoid the decrease in the total value of Egyptian potato exports to the European Union (EU) due to the quarantine restrictions imposed by the EU on potato tubers exported from Egypt affected by bacterial wilt. The results of traditional identification through morphological and serological studies showed that the five isolates were isolated and identified as Ralstonia solanacearum. Furthermore, the results illustrated that RS5 isolate showed the lowest percentage of disease incidence reduction on the three tested potatoes cultivar Bellini, Spunta and Mondial recorded 9.64%, 15.41% and 34.12%, respectively. While, RS8 isolate exhibited the highest effective one the percentage of disease reduction on all tested potato cultivars. This isolate reduced disease incidence 60.60%, 63.21% and 71.66%, compering to the healthy control treatment. The result of molecular identification represent that the probe used in Taq-man (PCR) was of the type (B2) capable to detect only biovar 2 of R. solanacearum bacterial wilt. Furthermore, primer and probe are specific for detection of the race 3 biovar 2 strain. Positive results were obtained in all assays used including IFAS, protein content and SDS-PAGE with all five isolates. So the isolate (RS5) was the most virulence one, followed by RS1, RS3, RS2 and RS8, registered that the tested isolates were R. solanacearum race 3, biovar 2. Also, studies focused on the form of genetic distances and similarities based on pathogenic and plant growth parameters. The results illustrate that the highest genetic similarity (0.998) was found between Bellini and Spunta cultivars as the closest but the lowest value (0.946) was found between Mundial and Bellini as most distant. These results were similarity with genetic distances and SDS-PAGE profile of the three tested potato cultivars.
