Studies have shown that genetic and phenotypic diversities of these pathogens vary across regions, and exploring such aspects in different potato-producing areas could provide insights into these bacteria’ ecology. In this study, 84 Taiwanese strains of potato-isolated soft rot bacteria were subjected to phylogenetic and phenotypic assays using the latest classification schemes. Preliminary testing with genus-specific primers suggested that all strains belonged to <i>Pectobacterium</i>. Multilocus sequence analysis divided them into four clades, each represented respectively by the type strain of <i>P</i>. <i>brasiliense</i>, <i>P</i>. <i>carotovorum</i>, <i>P. versatile</i>, and <i>P</i>. <i>aroidearum</i>. Among the species identified, <i>P</i>. <i>brasiliense</i> was found to be the most genetically diverse and prevalent. Phenotypic tests on representative strains of these species showed that all tested strains were able to grow at pH 5.5–10.0 and 16–37 °C. The ability to grow at pH 4.0–41 °C varied across strains, but the differences were unable to discriminate among species. Additional physiological assays were conducted, and while most assays did not allow reliable distinction among species, the indole production test was able to differentiate <i>P</i>. <i>brasiliense</i> strains from the other species. Inoculation of potato tubers revealed great intra-specific heterogeneity among maceration potentials of the tested strains.

Lignification is one of the most important mechanisms playing a very significant role in plant disease resistance. In the present study, a total of 115 pea entries of the Australian germplasm together with four standard controls were observed for the presence of total lignin content (72 h) and its accumulation in relation to the different components of resistance. Out of all the test entries, one resistant entry ‘EC865975’ showed the maximum increase in total lignin content even more than the resistant check. It also exhibited a low AUDPC (the Area under the Disease Progress Curve) value of 292 and showed formation of smaller pustules measuring 0.7 mm in size with reduction in their number. Further, it was found that the total lignin content was highly negatively correlated (<i>r</i> = -0.796) with AUDPC. The higher accumulation of lignin content was found in resistant test entries over susceptible ones. The principal component analysis of the different parameters revealed that the total lignin content and AUDPC were only the parameters mostly contributing to the total phenotypic variation to the extent of 81.92% as they exhibited their Eigenvalue &gt; 1. Further, the regression analysis considering the total lignin content as the independent variable and AUDPC, size and number of pustules, 100 seed weight and seed area as predictor variables revealed that the total lignin content caused 75.2% alteration in other predictor variables.
