New occurrence of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris as a pathogen of some Brassica spp. in Yugoslavia

Abstract

Cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.) is one of major vegetable species grown in Yugoslavia. The other Brassica spp. are grown in this country as well, but regarding the planted area they are considered as minor crops. However, the number of fields planted with cauliflower (B. o. var. botrytis L.) and kale (B. o. var. sabauda L.) increased recently.
