On the Trail of Stubborn Bacterial Yellowing Diseases [PDF]
This retrospective review traces personal encounters along the complex path of plant yellowing diseases—graft-transmissible disorders historically attributed to elusive viruses, but later linked to phloem-invading, wall-less bacteria known as Mollicutes.

Jujube Witches' Broom Phytoplasma Effectors SJP1/2 Manipulate the ZjTCP2-ZjTCP1 Cascade to Repress Leaf Cell Proliferation in Jujube. [PDF]
SJP1 and SJP2, two effectors secreted by JWB phytoplasmas, inhibit jujube leaf cell proliferation through manipulating a cascade involving ZjTCP2 and ZjTCP1, two TCP transcription factors from distinct subfamilies. ABSTRACT Leaf development into the final size is spatiotemporally regulated by cell proliferation and expansion. The jujube witches' broom (

Molecular Mechanism of ZjWRKY40-zju-miR157 Module Regulating Phytoplasma Tolerance in Jujube. [PDF]
SJP4JWB regulated the ZjWRKY40‐zju‐miR157 module to modulate the differential phytoplasma tolerance between phytoplasma‐susceptible genotype Fu and phytoplasma‐tolerant genotype T13. ABSTRACT Phytoplasma (‘Candidatus Phytoplasma’), a bacterial pathogen, is a significant plant health concern worldwide, resulting in substantial economic losses. In jujube
