NZ isolates of Ralstonia solanacearum were recorded between 1972 and 1978 in the northern North Island. No further detections have been made since that time, thus this species may no longer be present in NZ [BSW, June 2025]

Ralstonia solanacearum (Smith 1896) Yabuuchi et al. 1996

New Zealand isolates were characterised by PCR diagnostic tests and identified the Ralstonia solanacerum (Biovar 2 race 3). DNA sequencing further characterised these isolates as Phylotype 2B Sequevar 1. The revised taxonomy means that the Ralstonia solanacerum species are now limited to Phylotype 2 strains, and that Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is not present in New Zealand [RT & BSW 2018].
