Blackleg, black quarter, quarter evil, or quarter ill (Latin: gangraena emphysematosa) is an infectious bacterial disease most commonly caused by Clostridium chauvoei, a Gram-positive bacterial species. It is seen in livestock all over the world, usually affecting cattle, sheep, and goats.
Leptosphaeria maculans (anamorph Phoma lingam) is a fungal pathogen of the phylum Ascomycota that is the causal agent of blackleg disease on Brassica crops. Its genome has been sequenced, [2] and L. maculans is a well-studied model phytopathogenic fungus. Symptoms of blackleg generally include basal stem cankers, small grey lesions on leaves ...
Blackleg (disease), in sheep and cattle; Blackleg in rapeseed and other mustard-and-cabbage-family plants, caused by fungus Leptosphaeria maculans; Blackleg (potatoes), caused by Pectobacterium carotovorum; Blackleg (geraniums), caused by a form of the quasi-fungus Pythium; Scurvy, vitamin deficiency in primates and some other animals
Blackleg of Potato complete plant wilt in field. These plants can sometimes be lost in the canopy. Blackleg is a plant disease of potato caused by pectolytic bacteria that can result in stunting, wilting, chlorosis of leaves, necrosis of several tissues, a decline in yield, and at times the death of the potato plant.
The host for Dickeya solani is the potato plant (Solanum tuberosum).Dickeya spp. can be the causal agents of soft rots and black leg. The symptoms that this bacteria causes can at times not be easily distinguished from the symptoms caused by Pectobacterium spp, since both pathogens induce a rotting of the plant tissue and black leg symptoms on the host.
Picipes badius (formerly Royoporus badius), commonly known as the black-footed polypore or black-leg, is a species of fungus in the family Polyporaceae. It causes a white rot of hardwoods and conifers. The species is found in temperate areas of Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America.
In the United States, a group purchasing organization (GPO) is an entity that is created to leverage the purchasing power of a group of businesses to obtain discounts from vendors based on the collective buying power of the GPO members. [1] Many GPOs are funded by administrative fees which are paid by the vendors that GPOs oversee.
However, these reports may also be due to infection with other Clostridium strains that can cause blackleg, such as C. septicum. [3] A study conducted in Taiwan found a correlation between flooding and how often C. chauvoei was found in soil samples. This is attributed to flood waters dispersing the bacteria throughout the environment. [5]
