Xanthomonas translucens is a species of phytopathogenic bacteria. It is the causal agent of bacterial leaf streak in of wheat and cereal crop. The bacterium is transmitted as a seed-borne pathogen. The transmission rate is very low but ensures serious outbreaks in the field under suitable conditions. The pathogen is a non-sporing, aerobic, motile, gram-negative, rod bacterium with a single polar flagellum.

Subspecies

X. t. pv. translucens (syn. X. campestris pv. translucens) causes a bacterial leaf streak of wheat.[1]:113[2] Xts medium is developed and presented in Schaad & Forster 1985.[1]:113[2] Xts medium is semi-selective for Xtt.[1]:113[2] Although some problems with this agar are known, nothing better is available.[1]:113
