In 2010, we initiated a research
to determine whether there are
streptomycin-resistant strains
of the causal bacterium
(Erwinia amylovora)

Results of Pathogenicity Tests ________________________________________
All Illinois isolates were pathogenic,
the lesion sizes were different in
pear. We are investigating the
differences.

Studies during 2010-2011
showed no streptomycin-
resistance of fire blight
bacterium in Illinois. The
study will continue in 2012.

We are still evaluating the
isolates for resistance to
copper compounds, but so
far, no resistance has been
detected.
