Lonsdalea is a genus of the family Pectobacteriaceae. It was established in 2012 by Brady et al.[2] The type species, Lonsdalea quercina, was first described in 1967 by Hildebrand & Schroth as the reason for drippy nut disease in live oaks.[3] There are currently four species placed under Lonsdalea:[1]
- Lonsdalea britannica (Brady et al. 2012) Li et al. 2017
- Lonsdalea iberica (Brady et al. 2012) Li et al. 2017
- Lonsdalea populi (Tóth et al. 2013) Li et al. 2017
- Lonsdalea quercina (Hildebrand and Schroth 1967) Brady et al. 2012
Etymology
[edit]The genus was named for Dr. David Lonsdale for his work on the biology and pathology of trees.[1][2]
