The presence of X. euvesicatoria was confirmed in pepper plants (probably Capsicum annuum but not explicitely said in the paper from Jibrin et al., 2014) showing symptoms of bacterial spot. In a later paper, tomato strains of X. euvesicatoria from Nigeria were shown to present some atypical characteristics (Jibrin et al., 2015).
