Fire blight: the disease and its causative agent, Erwinia amylovora.
Abstract
Abstract This book is the first multi-authored book on fire blight, the most devastating bacterial disease of apples and pears. It is divided into three sections. The first section is about the disease: its epidemiology, its worldwide distribution and its economic importance, the host range of the pathogen and how it migrates and survives in the fruit tissues. The second section is about the causal agent, Erwinia amylovora: its general characteristics as a member of the Enterobacteriaceae, but also the weapons it uses to cause disease: amylovoran, harpin, avirulence factors and siderophores. In the third section, the authors address the difficult problems of fire blight control. They look at chemical control, problems associated with streptomycin resistance, potential and limitations of traditional breeding and transgenic plants, and risk assessment strategies for the control of fire blight in orchards and in nurseries.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
