In order to get cultures of the causal organisms, large number of potato plants and tuber samples from all over the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) showing symptoms of blackleg/soft rot disease were analyzed and at the result 20 PCR-confirmed Erwinia carotovora ssp. atroseptica (Eca) isolates were tested for their aggressiveness. Studies indicated that Eca6 and Eca15 were the most aggressive isolates on potatoes. Eca6 was also found to be the most aggressive one on Carrot and Chili as well.
