The efficiency of global crop production is under threat from microbial pathogens which is likely to be worsened by climate change. Major contributors to plant disease are Pseudomonas syringae (P. syringae) pathovars which affect a variety of important crops. This opinion piece focuses on P. syringae pathovars actinidiae and syringae, which affect kiwifruit and stone fruits, respectively. We discuss some of the current control strategies for these pathogens and highlight recent research developments in combined biocontrol agents such as bacteriophages and combinations of bacteriophages with known anti-microbials such as antibiotics and bacteriocins.
全球作物生产效率受到微生物病原体的威胁，而气候变化可能会使这种情况恶化。导致植物病害的主要因素是丁香假单胞菌（P. syringae）的致病型，它们会影响多种重要作物。本文主要讨论了分别影响猕猴桃和核果的丁香假单胞菌致病型 actinidiae 和 syringae。我们讨论了针对这些病原体的一些现有控制策略，并重点介绍了近年来在噬菌体等组合生物防治剂方面的研究进展，如噬菌体与抗生素和细菌素等已知抗菌剂的组合。
