Abstract

Two monoclonal antibodies specific for lipopolysaccharide antigens of Xanthomonas campestris pv. begoniae and pv. pelargonii reacted with all of their respective pathovar strains and not with 130 strains of other xanthomonads or 89 nonxanthomonads tested. These results, as well as previous results, indicate that pathovar-specific monoclonal antibodies were readily generated to strains of X. campestris pathovars that generally infect single hosts.
