Abstract
Bacterial ring rot caused by Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus is a widespread disease of potato resulting in significant economic lost in agriculture and seed growing. A latent form of this infection makes difficulties for diagnostics and facilitates the quick disease propagation. Polymerase chain reaction is the best method for the disease control.
