Abstract To provide a scientific basis for controlling mulberry bacterial blight in Bazhong, Sichuan, China (BSC), this study aimed to isolate and purify pathogenic bacteria from diseased branches of mulberry trees in the region and to clarify their taxonomic status using morphological observation, physiological and biochemical detection, molecular-level identification, and the construction of a phylogenetic tree. A total of 218 bacterial strains were isolated from samples of diseased mulberry branches. Of these, 7 strains were identified as pathogenic bacteria based on pathogenicity tests conducted in accordance with Koch’s postulates. Preliminary findings from the analysis of the More >
