ABSTRACT
The accurate characterization of collections of bacterial strains is a major scientific challenge, since bacteria are indeed responsible of significant plant diseases and thus subjected to official control procedures (e.g., in Europe, Directive 2000/29/EC). The development of diagnostic tests is therefore an important issue in order to routinely identify strains of these species.
