Epifluorescence microscopy imaging of phytoplasmas in embedded leaf tissues using DAPI and SYTO13 fluorochromes [PDF]
, 2016 The use of DNA-specific dyes, i. e. DAPI, is extensively reported for phytoplasma detection in fresh plant materials. However, fluorescence-based microscopy and imaging of fresh tissues often evidences technical limitations which are more significant in ...

Molecular identification of a phytoplasma infecting grapevine in the Republic of Macedonia [PDF]
, 2015 Phytoplasmas from the ribosomal subgroup 16SrXII-A (stolbur) were identified by PCR and RFLP analyses of 16S rRNA gene and elongation factor-Tu phytoplasma gene (tuf) in symptomatic grapevines from the Veles and Skopje areas in Macedonia.

Distribution of phytoplasma in grapevines in the Golan Heights, Israel, and development of a new universal primer [PDF]
, 2015 Our survey, made in 1999 and 2000, sampled 4 of the most prevalent grapevine cultivars in northern, central and southern regions of the Golan Heights. There were significant differences in the levels of phytoplasma infection between different sub-regions
