Differences in Gene Expression of Pear Selections Showing Leaf Curling or Leaf Reddening Symptoms Due to Pear Decline Phytoplasma [PDF]
While host gene expression has been related to symptoms associated with different phytoplasma diseases, it is unknown why some phytoplasmas are associated with different symptoms in genotypes of the same plant species.

Pear psylla proven carrier of pear decline virus
Recent studies provide very strong evidence that quick decline disease of pears is caused by a virus transmitted by the pear psylla rather than by an insect toxin alone.

Transmission of pear decline by grafting
Graft transmission studies provide further evidence that quick decline pears is caused by a virus and that, under experimental conditions, it cause the disease in the absence of pear psylla.

Dual biotic stressors shape volatile organic compound emission patterns in pome fruit trees [PDF]
Plants release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as part of their defense mechanisms when attacked by phytopathogens and herbivores. These specific volatile emissions can help plants avoid damage.

Pear Rootstock Effects on Seasonal Colonization Patterns of Pear Decline Phytoplasma
Pear decline (PD) phytoplasma populations were examined over one year in non-symptomatic pear trees with HW620 scions grafted onto three different rootstocks: OH×F87 (PD resistant), OH×F69 (PD susceptible), and Bartlett (PD susceptible).

Pathogenicity of Stemphylium vesicarium from different hosts causing brown spot in pear [PDF]
Stemphylium vesicarium (teleomorph: Pleospora herbarum) is the causal agent of brown spot disease in pear. The species is also able to cause disease in asparagus, onion and other crops. Saprophytic growth of the fungus on plant debris is common.
