MAHMUD ABUSSAUD AND BAYEN MAHAWREH
Abstract
Pscudomonas species isolated from soils cultivated with citrus plants (204) and plant galls (46) in the Jordan Valley were physiologically and biochemically classified into fluorescent group (74) and nonfluorescent group (176). All plant gali isolates belong to fluorescent group. The soil isolates (145) and the plant gall isolates (46) were pathogenic to tobacco plants. The non-fluorescent group included: P. maltuphilia (53), P. cepaeia (41), P. avenae (21), P. solanacearun (20), P. cissicola (18), P. cattleya (8), P. paucimobilis (4), P. citrulli (3), P. mesophiliea (3), P. andmpogonis (3) and P. amygdali (2) and the fluorescent group P. syringae (62), P. fluorescens (7) and P. chlororaphis (5).
