The bacterium infects rice panicles at the flowering stage and causes serious yield losses when temperature and humidity are favorable for successful infection and in vivo proliferation. The bacterium produces yellow pigments, toxoflavin, reumycin, and fervenulin. Among these, toxoflavin is the most critical virulence factor of the bacterium. Strain BGR1 was isolated in Korea (adapted from PMID 19329631)."xsd:string |
