Summary Potato stems and tubers grown in the field from seed tubers inoculated withClavibacter michiganensis subsp.sepedonicus, which causes bacterial ring rot, were tested by indirect, sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in five laboratories. Correlation between values for each experimental treatment from the five laboratories was greater (r=0.86) than correlation between values for individual samples (r=0.71). When three or more laboratories obtained ELISA values of ≥0.200 for a sample, that sample was presumed to be positive. Conversely, when three or more laboratories obtained ELISA values 〈0.200, the consensus determination was regarded as negative. The percentage of stem and tuber samples that were in agreement with the consensus ELISA determination varied from 65.5 to 96.7%. Indirect immunofluorescence tests, conducted on the same samples in two laboratories, were consistent with 83.4–91.9% of the consensus ELISA determinations. Presence or absence ofC.m. sepedonicus was confirmed in some samples by an eggplant bioassay and direct isolatiion of the bacterium. The ELISA procedure was well suited for screening large numbers of samples and this study confirms it to be a promising procedure in routine indexing of seed potatoes forC.m. sepedonicus.
