Moucheture bactérienne. [...] La maladie se remarque surtout sur les fruits, où elle engendre de nombreuses taches brun foncé, d'un diamètre de 1 à 2 mm. Ces taches pénètrent à peine plus profondément que l'épaisseur de la peau. Parfois, les lésions sont plus étendues et plus irrégulières, ressemblent beaucoup à celles de la tache bactérienne [...] Sur les feuilles, la moucheture bactérienne donne naissance à des taches qui vont du brun foncé au noir et sont un peu plus grandes que celles qui touchent les fruits. 3, record 1, French, - moucheture%20bact%C3%A9rienne
