Dickeya dadantii

Dickeyea is a genus of Enterobacteria. It is the result of reclassification of 75 Pectobacterium chrysanthemi strains and Brenneria paradisiaca CFBP 4178 into a new genus named after the American phytopathologist Robert S. Dickey. [1] Several species in this genus, such as Dickeyea dadantii, are known phytopathogens. [2] [3]
