Xanthomonas (from greek: xanthos – "yellow"; monas – "entity") is a genus of bacteria, many of which cause plant diseases. [1] There are at least 27 plant associated Xanthomonas spp., that all together infect at least 400 plant species. Different species typically have specific host and/or tissue range and colonization strategies.
Bacterial seedling blight of rice (Oryza sativa), caused by pathogen Burkholderia plantarii [4] Early blight of potato and tomato, caused by species of the ubiquitous fungal genus Alternaria; Leaf blight of the grasses e.g. Ascochyta species [5] and Alternaria triticina that causes blight in wheat [6]
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a plant pathogenic fungus and can cause a disease called white mold if conditions are conducive. S. sclerotiorum can also be known as cottony rot, watery soft rot, stem rot, drop, crown rot and blossom blight. A key characteristic of this pathogen is its ability to produce black resting structures known as sclerotia ...
When either these bacterial genes or a plant's resistance genes to the pathogen are not present, the interaction will result in disease. Alternatively, when the genes are present, the plant's resistance genes will produce a product that is able to recognize the avr genes of the bacteria, which allows for the plant host to have resistance.

Bacterial wilt is a disease of the vascular tissue. When a plant is infected, E. tracheiphila multiplies within the xylem , eventually causing mechanical blockage of the water transport system. The first sign of infection, which appears about five days after acquisition, is the wilting of individual leaves on a single stem.
