Abstract
By applying A- and A*-type strains of Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) in a repetitive sequence-based polymerase chain reaction (rep-PCR), two DNA amplicons, one unique to each strain, were evaluated as a probe against the DNA of Xcc strains. Two pairs of primers derived from these amplicons were tested in a PCR analysis. The results confirmed that primers Ms+/Ms− are useful for differentiating A-type from A*-type strains of Xcc. Also, a multiplex PCR with both set of primers can be used to distinguish three groups in Xcc populations: A-type strains and two subgroups of A* strains including Iranian and Thai A* strains.
