Abstract

To investigate the relationship between diseases and abnormal symptoms during the cultivation of summer Kimchi cabbage, we developed molecular markers for four pathogens: Pseudomonas marginalis pv. marginalis (Pmm), Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc), Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora (Ecc), and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. conglutianans (Foc). These markers produced specific bands for each pathogen, indicating their potential for pathogen detection. We conducted molecular diagnoses to analyze the infection status and examine the association of these four pathogens, along with Verticillium dahliae (VD), with the abnormal symptoms observed in highland summer Kimchi cabbage. The analysis successfully detected several pathogens; however, discrepancies were noted in pathogen detection for similar symptoms, highlighting the need for further research to pinpoint the exact causes. The primary pathogens identified were Foc, Xcc, and Ecc. In samples where no pathogens were detected, the abnormal symptoms were suspected to stem from boron deficiency, which can manifest as drying, or from water stress due to low humus content in soils, exacerbated by frequent rainfall. To accurately determine the causes of abnormal symptoms in highland summer Kimchi cabbage related to climate change, it is essential to expand molecular diagnostics to include a broader range of pathogens. Concurrent research on nutritional and physiological disorders is also recommended.
