Quickscan Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. poinsettiae
Recently, Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. poinsettiae (Cfp) was reported from Germany. Cfp causes leaf spots and stem cancer in Euphorbia pulcherrima (poinsettia). It seems to have a limited distribution in the EU. The main pathway for introduction and spread is infected plant material. Introduction of the bacterium at pot plant nurseries can be prevented by use of pathogen free plant material and strict hygiene measures. In case of an infestation, the bacterium can probably be eliminated by application of strict hygiene measures including removal of all plant debris after the growing season of poinsettia pot plants ]]>
