Distribution géographique

Dickeya dianthicola was initially detected in seed potato crops in Dandaragan and Myalup in Western Australia in June 2017. Further tracing and surveillance detected D. dianthicola in dahlia tubers in Albany, Western Australia. The pest has been detected in two dahlia tuber cultivars and freesia bulbs, which allegedly originated from Victoria. The Victorian plant quarantine authority is undertaking detailed tracing and diagnostic activities, although to date there have been no detections of the pest in Victoria.

Résumé

Eradication of D. dianthicola from Australia is not considered technically feasible. D. dianthicola is a bacterium that is considered to be an important pathogen in seed potato production, where it is known to cause tuber soft rot. It can also infect other crops, including some ornamentals. D. dianthicola can be present in a plant without causing symptoms.

Danger

D. dianthicola causes soft rot in potatoes. Yield losses have been recorded in potato crops overseas. D. dianthicola is also known to persist in soil and water.
