Abstract:	One of the most important diseases affecting guava production in Brazil is bacterial blight, caused by the bacterium Erwinia psidii. Pathogen dissemination often occurs through contaminated propagating plant material. The development of more effective diagnostic methods may reduce pathogen dissemination in the country. Considering the need for a reliable and simple method for detecting the pathogen in plant material, the objectives of this study were to produce E. psdii-specific polyclonal antibodies and to develop a detection method using bacterial population enrichment on guava leaf extracts followed by double radial immunodiffusion. The antiserum was produced against the E. psidii type strain IBSBF 435 (ICMP 8426, NCPPB 3555) and its efficiency, specificity and sensitivity threshold were determined. The antiserum As15-1 was tested with strains of several plant-pathogenic bacteria and reacted positively with all strains of E. psidii, although cross reactions were detected with two non-pathogenic isolates from guava flora. Bacterial multiplication on leaf extracts was observed 12 h after incubation from initial populations of 103, 105 and 107 ufc/mL, up to 60 h. After 12 h it was already possible to detect E. psidii in samples with starting populations of 107 cfu/mL. After 36 h, the enrichment technique allowed the detection of E. psidii using double radial immunodiffusion in samples with populations as low as 103 cfu/mL. Considering the possibility of false positives it is desirable to associate other diagnostic methods with the method proposed in this study.
