Phytoplasmas and Phytoplasma Diseases: A Severe Threat to Agriculture

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Plant Sciences, 2014
Several economically relevant phytoplasma-associated diseases are described together with an update of phytoplasma taxonomy and major biological and molecular features of phytoplasmas. Outlook about persepectives and future work to contain spread of these diseases are also reported.

Association of a phytoplasma with a yellow leaf syndrome of sugarcane in Africa

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, 1998
Evidence is presented for the association of a phytoplasma, provisionally named sugarcane yellows phytoplasma (ScYP), in sugarcane affected by a yellow leaf syndrome.

Phytoplasma: Phytopathogenic Mollicutes [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Microbiology, 2000
▪ Abstract  During the past decade, research has yielded new knowledge about the plant and insect host ranges, geographical distribution, and phylogenetic relationships of phytoplasmas, and a taxonomic system has emerged in which distinct phytoplasmas are named as separate “Candidatus phytoplasma species.” In large part, this progress has resulted ...

PHYTOPLASMA

2023
Phytoplasmas is a class of bacteria that is pathogenic to a wide variety of plant species, and was first identified in 1967. It is characterized by its small genome size, ranging from 0.3 to 1.2 micrometers, and polymorphic polymorphism. It is important for agriculture to identify the factors that contribute to its pathogenicity, as well as to identify

Clover proliferation phytoplasma: ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma trifolii’

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2004
Clover proliferation phytoplasma (CPR) is designated as the reference strain for the CP phylogenetic group or subclade, on the basis of molecular analyses of genomic DNA, the 16S rRNA gene and the 16S–23S spacer region. Other strains related to CPR include alfalfa witches'-broom (AWB), brinjal little leaf (BLL), beet leafhopper-transmitted virescence ...

‘Candidatus Phytoplasma japonicum’, a new phytoplasma taxon associated with Japanese Hydrangea phyllody

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 1999
A phytoplasma was discovered in diseased specimens of field-grown hortensia (Hydrangea spp.) exhibiting typical phyllody symptoms. PCR amplification of DNA using phytoplasma specific primers detected phytoplasma DNA in all of the diseased plants examined.

Phytoplasma Cultivation

2019
The possibility to grow phytoplasmas in complex media as the mycoplasmas was ruled out for more than 40 years due to the inconsistency of the first isolation trials. The use of micropropagated infected periwinkle shoots first and tissues infected directly from the fields on artificial media was recently confirmed.

Phytoplasmas: An Update

2018
A summary of the research carried out on phytoplasma-associated diseases 50 years after their discovery is presented. The great majority of the research was devoted to classification and differentiation of these prokaryotes by molecular and bioinformatic tools applied to specific phytoplasma genes. The availability of a robust classification system has

Grapevine Phytoplasmas

2018
The diseases associated with phytoplasmas in grapevine are collectively called yellows and occur in the majority of grapevine-growing regions over the world. At first, a short overview of symptoms and damage associated with the presence of grapevine phytoplasmas is reported.

Phytoplasma: Ecology and Genomic Diversity [PDF]

open access: yesPhytopathology, 1998
The recent development of molecular-based probes such as mono- and polyclonal antibodies, cloned phytoplasma DNA fragments, and phytoplasma-specific primers for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has allowed for advances in detection and identification of uncultured phytoplasmas (formerly called mycoplasma-like organisms).
