An emerging bacterial disease with symptoms resembling those of halo blight is threatening mung bean production in China. This study was conducted to investigate the disease’s geographic distribution in China using consecutive multiyear field surveys and to confirm the causative agents’ identity. The surveys were conducted in 15 provinces covering seven geographic regions from 2009 to 2014. The survey results revealed that the emerging mung bean disease has rapidly spread and is prevalent in three of the main Chinese geographic regions, which contain more than 90% of the mung-bean-growing areas in China. To confirm the causal agent, diseased mung bean leaves were collected from the surveyed
