First report of soft rot caused by Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum on cucumber in Malaysia.

In Malaysia, cucumber is produced in a warm, humid climate, thus the plant is susceptible to attack by P. carotovorum at any time during production. In 2010, cucumber samples with wilted and chlorotic leaves, water-soaked lesions, and collapsed fruits were found in multiple fields. On the basis of b...
