| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The phytopathogen Ralstonia solanacearum undergoes spontaneous phenotypic conversion (PC) from a pathogenic (fluidal white colony) to a non-pathogenic (non-fluidal red colony) form in culture media, soil, plant, and plant homogenate. In this study, we showed that the pathogen undergoes PC at high frequency by mixing plant in soil and managing at high soil moisture and temperature. In addition, we revealed that infection of live PC mutants at high concentration to potato seedlings shows to have high protective effect against bacterial wilt disease. Furthermore, it was suggested that resistance induction in plants is involved in the suppression of bacterial wilt by PC mutants. Based on these results, we demonstrated a management system to control potato bacterial wilt by cultivating potato in soil where the pathogen underwent PC by mixing plant in R. solanacearum infested soil.
