The genera Acidovorax and Herbaspirillum contain organisms that were previously classified as part of the genus Pseudomonas. Together with many plant pathogenic pseudomonads, as the genus Pseudomonas has been revised over the past twenty years, organisms within these two genera have been taxonomically reclassified. The taxonomy, host range, ecology, control and detection of the plant pathogenic members of the genera Acidovorax and Herbaspirillum are discussed.
