Abstract

Within the last three years (2003-2005) the symptoms caused by fitopathogene bacteria have been observed among three main growing areas of cabbage-like vegetable in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Lijevče polje, Semberija and Gornji Vakuf surroundings), on a larger number of growing lots, above all among cabbage and caoliflower but also among other cabbage-like vegetables. The percentage of the plants infected was from 10 - 50 %, but there were also some growing lots where a 100% infection developed, which caused enormous economic difficulties. On the basis of laboratory analysis, the causes of the observed symptoms were found to be two fitopathogene bacteria: Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Pammel) Dowson and Erwinia carotovora ssp. carotovora (Jones) Bergey et al.
This work describes the importance of the sorts mentioned above and the symptoms they cause, as well as the hosts they attack, together with the biology and epidemiology of the parasites, with a special emphasis on the measures of fighting them.
