Pseudomonas coronafaciens is a Gram-negative bacterium that is pathogenic to several plant species. Following ribotypical analysis several pathovars of Pseudomonas syringae were incorporated into this species.^[1]^[2]

Pathogenesis

Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. atropurpurea is pathogenic on Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum).
Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. coronafaciens causes halo blight on oat (Avena sativa).
Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. garcae infects the coffee plant Coffea arabica.
Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. oryzae is pathogenic on rice (Oryza sativa).
Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. porri infects the leek (Allium ampeloprasum var. porrum).
Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. striafaciens causes bacterial stripe blight on oat (Avena sativa).
Pseudomonas coronafaciens pv. zizaniae causes bacterial leaf streak on wild rice (Zizania aquatica).
