Sensitive, Secure Detection of Race 3 Biovar 2 and Native U.S. Strains of Ralstonia solanacearum
Plant Disease, 100(3), 630–639.
TL;DR:
Comparing the sensitivity, cost, and technical complexity of several assays to detect and distinguish R3bv2 and sequevar 7 strains of R. solanacearum in geranium, tomato, and potato tissue in the laboratory and in naturally infected tomato plants from the field suggests that samples on FTA cards can be safely transported for diagnosis.

Tropical Strains of Ralstonia solanacearum Outcompete Race 3 Biovar 2 Strains at Lowland Tropical Temperatures
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 81(10), 3542–3551.
Ed(s): H. Drake
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological; Solanum lycopersicum / microbiology; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Ralstonia solanacearum / classification; Ralstonia solanacearum / genetics; Ralstonia solanacearum / isolation & purification; Ralstonia solanacearum / physiology; Temperature; Tropical Climate
TL;DR:
The hypothesis that differences in temperature adaptation and competitive fitness explain the uneven geographic distribution of R. solanacearum strains is tested and the superior competitive index of UW551 at 24/19°C suggests that adaptation to cool temperatures could explain why only R3bv2 strains threaten highland agriculture.
