Disease diagnosis is based on a number of factors, including laboratory tests for pathogen identification. Rapid development of genomic techniques for characterization of bacteria over the past decade has greatly simplified and improved pathogen detection and identification, but DNA-based methods have not yet entirely replaced traditional culture and phenotypic tests in the plant industry. The first section of this review focuses on rapid immunodiagnostic and DNA-based detection methods for known bacterial pathogens in plants or plant products, which often manifest no symptoms of disease. The second section covers the broader topic of disease diagnosis and new methods for identifying and characterizing bacteria.

用于检测植物病原细菌和诊断细菌疾病的综合方法。

疾病诊断基于多种因素，包括用于病原体鉴定的实验室测试。在过去的十年中，用于鉴定细菌的基因组技术的迅速发展极大地简化和改善了病原体的检测和鉴定，但是基于DNA的方法尚未完全取代植物工业中的传统培养和表型测试。本文的第一部分着重于对植物或植物产品中已知细菌病原体的快速免疫诊断和基于DNA的检测方法，这些方法通常不会表现出疾病症状。第二部分涵盖疾病诊断的更广泛主题以及用于鉴定和表征细菌的新方法。
