Abstract
This paper describes detailed genomic fingerprinting analysis of populations of Ralstonia solanacearum of groundnut from Malaysia and of potato from Bolivia and South America; representing heterogeneous and homogeneous populations, respectively. These studies identify clear population structures which relate to a biogeographic distribution. The results are discussed in relation to the epidemiology of the pathogen and the formulation of control strategies.
