Abstract
Assimilation of 99 carbon sources by eighty-eight Pseudomonas savastanoi strains isolated from oleander (41), olive (32), and various other host plants was performed. The results of numerical analysis showed that the majority of the olive and oleander strains were clustered in one phenon. Strains from other hosts such as Myrtus sp., Ligustrum sp., Phillyrea sp. and Retama sphaerocarpa, were grouped into a different phenon together with five oleander strains.
