Abstract: Bacterial leaf blight is a destructive disease of Anthurium spp. This disease,caused by Xanthomonas, Pseudomonas or Erwinia,had a major impact on the production of Anthurium industry in China. Pathogens were isolated from the leaves of Anthurium andraenum infected with Bacterial leaf blight at the Anthurium nursery in Hainan,China. The pathogens were purified for morphological observation,biochemical determination of pathogenic characteristics,and specific bacterial ABC transporter gene analysis. The results showed that the isolated pathogens were Xanthomonas axonopodis.
