Abstract: 
Background: A wide variety of different saprophytic and pathogenic bactera, both living epiphytic or
endophytic, colonize physically and nutritionally different microhabitats on plants phyllosphere.
Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) is phytopathogenic bacteria causing bacterial blight
symptom on oilseed rape (Brassica napus) and black rot on other cultivated Brassica oleaceae
vegetables.
Objectives: Metagenomic approach was used to reveal differences in microbial communities
colonizing the phyllosphere of four different winter oilseed rape varieties with expressed bacterial
blight symptoms and one healthy variety, all collected from five different localities in Vojvodina
(Serbia) in 2018.
Methods: Next generation sequencing (NGS) Illumina MiSeq platform was used to obtain 16S rRNA
sequences from five tested samples, and to gain insight into their alpha and beta diversity.
Comparative taxonomic analysis of the obtained sequencing metadata was processed
bioinformaticaly.
Results: Different percetages of bacterial species belonging to three bacterial phyla-Proteobacteria,
Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria were dominant in phyllosphere of all five oilseed rape varietes.
Bacteria from the phylum Proteobacteria (66-91%) were dominant in diseased varieties, unlike
healthy variety where only 38% belonged to this phylum. Genus Xanthomonas (40-74%) was the
most abundant in diseased plants phyllosphere. Only 0.2% of Xanthomonas representatives were
present in healthy plants, where order Enterobacteriales (Pantoea, Buchnera, and udEnterobacteriaceae) were the most abundant. The genus Exiguobacterium was the most abundant in
healthy variety (47%). Bacteria from phylum Acintinobacteria were least represented, with less then
1% in diseased and up to 12% (ud-Micrococcaceae, Kocuria, Arthrobacter, and ud-Microbacteriaceae)
in healthy oilseed rape variety.
