X. campestris pv. translucens is the causal agent of bacterial leaf streak of cereals and grasses, and individual strs within the pathovar differ in their host range among the cereals. Coinoculation of a wide-host-range and a narrow- host-range str. resulted in the wide-host-range reaction. Transposon and chemical mutagenesis of the wide-host-range str. Xct4, pathogenic on barley, wheat, rye and triticale, resulted in variants with reduced host range. When pathogenicity was inactivated independently for barley, wheat, triticale and rye, wild-type symptoms were retained on the other members in the host range. Testing of some host range mutants on
