• Symptoms and yield reduction caused by Dickeya spp. strains isolated from potato and river water in Finland (2010, methodology): “Bacterial strains identified as biovar 1 and biovar 7 have been isolated from potato in Europe in several studies (Palacio-Bielsa et al. 2006; Hélias, unpublished).”
• Control of blackleg and tuber soft rot of potato caused by Pectobacterium and Dickeya species: a review. (2011, background): “Recently, in Europe, a biovar 3 Dickeya spp. genetic clade, not previously described, has been found in river water and at the same time in seed potatoes in Finland (Laurila et al., 2008, Laurila et al., 2010).”
• Distribution of Dickeya spp. and Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum in naturally infected seed potatoes (2009, background): “Although D. dianthicola had been reported to cause blackleg in northern and western Europe (Laurila et al. 2008), Dickeya spp. was more frequently found in regions with a higher temperature such as in Israel (Lumb et al. 1986).”
• Biochemical and genetical analysis reveal a new clade of biovar 3 Dickeya spp. strains isolated from potato in Europe (2009, unknown): “It has been speculated that contaminated surface water can be a primary source of infection for clean potato stocks (Cappaert et al. 1988; Laurila et al. 2008).”
• Two new effective semiselective crystal violet pectate media for isolation of Pectobacterium and Dickeya (2012, background): “, 2009) or from the environment, such as soil or water (Laurila et al., 2008).”
• Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. brasiliensis causing blackleg on potatoes in South Africa (2009, background): “…known as the soft rot Erwinia spp., but they were recently reclassified into two new genera, namely Pectobacterium and Dickeya, on the basis of 16S rDNA sequences, their ability to grow at 39°C and host ranges (Hauben et al. 1998, Garden et al. 2003, Samson et al. 2005, Laurila et al. 2008).”
