Genetic variability study of five isolates of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri was carried out using molecular markers. The isolates were collected from five places in Maharashtra state, India. Morphological and Biochemical tests viz. gram’s reaction, starch hydrolysis, indole production, catalase test, KOH test, Gelatin liquefaction and Acid production test were carried out to identify and confirm the purity of the culture. The genetic variability was studied by using 14 RAPD and 8 ISSR primers out of which 7 RAPD primers produced 47 scorable bands and 2 ISSR primers produced 13 scorable bands. The similarity coefficient value ranged from 0.13 to 0.40 for RAPD and from 0.00 to 1.00 for ISSR primers across five isolates indicating high degree of genetic variation.
