Abstract
The results of many years of experimental research of bacterial pathology of forest trees in Ukraine are presented. It is emphasized that on forest trees in the world several dozens of bacteriosis with different degrees of damage caused by bacteria of genera Pseudomonas, Xanthomonas, Enterobacter, Erwinia, Agrobacterium, Brenneria, Xylella, Rhizobium, Corynebacterium, Bacillus, Clostridium etc. are described. It is emphasized the need to deepen the research of automicrobiota, in particular its pathogenic components in the context of understanding both general biological problems of the pathology, and in order to work out forest protection measures.
