TOPICS
ABSTRACT
Pantoea species (Pantoea spp.) is a diverse group of Gram-negative bacteria in the Enterobacteriaceae
family that leads to devastating diseases in rice plants, thus affecting significant
economic losses of rice production worldwide. Most critical rice diseases such as grain
discoloration, bacterial leaf blight, stem necrosis and inhibition of seed germination have
been reported to be caused by this pathogen. To date, 20 Pantoea spp. have been identified
and recognized as having similar phenotypic and diverse characteristics. Detection via
phenotypic and molecular-based approaches, for example the polymerase chain reaction
(PCR) and multiplex PCR give us a better understanding of the diversity of Pantoea genus
and helps to improve effective disease control strategies against this emergent bacterial
pathogen of rice. In this review, we focused on the significance of rice diseases caused by
Pantoea spp. and insights on the taxonomy and characteristics of this destructive pathogen
via phenotypic and molecular identification.
