“Erwinia carotovora (now Pectobacterium carotovorum) is a well-documented broad-host bacterium; tobacco leaf infection in seedlings is experimentally established, and SA-mediated suppression of its multiplication is a classic SA-defense model system.”
- agroecologist · plausible
“Erwinia carotovora (now Pectobacterium carotovorum) is a well-documented soft-rot bacterium infecting tobacco leaves; source quote directly supports seedling inoculation context.”
