Review of Coconut “Lethal Yellowing” type diseases Diversity, variability and diagnosis [PDF]
Coconut palms (Cocos nucifera L.) can be affected by several types of Lethal Yellowing (LY) diseases worldwide. Some of the syndromes are caused by phytoplasmas, small bacteria that are impossible to detect by light microscopy.

New data on a cultural control method against coconut lethal yellowing in Ghana
Lethal yellowing disease has been rife in West Africa, especially Ghana, since 1932. In the 1990s, the first operations to fell diseased coconut palms at an early stage showed that this substantially slowed down the spread of the disease.

BRUCE EFFECT COMPETENCE IN YELLOW-LETHAL HETEROZYGOUS MICE [PDF]
Summary. The capacity of heterozygous yellow-lethal (Aya) and brown (aa) male mice to induce the Bruce effect was investigated. The proportion of SJL/J females showing a failure of implantation when exposed to males of either genotype was 80 %, whereas only 20 % of the control females not so exposed showed pregnancy failure.
