Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 2, Page 132-141, February 2026.Aster yellows phytoplasma (AYp) infection alters host plant preference in aster leafhoppers (Macrosteles quadrilineatus), with infected vectors showing a significant preference for AYp‐infected canola (Brassica napus) early in the infection period. However, this preference fades as infection progresses. Despite early attraction, B.

Phytoplasma occurrence in apple trees in the Czech Republic
Plant Protection Science, 2003 The presence of phytoplasmas in apple trees with proliferation symptoms, rubbery wood symptoms and no symptoms was determined by using polymerase chain reaction assays with primers amplifying phytoplasma 16S rRNA gene.

Yellow canopy syndrome of sugarcane: A review of current knowledge and future research directions
Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 1, Page 48-63, January 2026.Yellow Canopy Syndrome (YCS) is a complex issue affecting commercial sugarcane in Australia, first identified in Far North Queensland over a decade ago. It has spread across most cane‐growing regions in Queensland and poses a significant threat to the global sugarcane industry.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Phytoplasmas are phloem-limited plant pathogens, such as sugarcane white leaf (SCWL) phytoplasma, which are responsible for heavy economic losses to the sugarcane industry. Characterization of phytoplasmas has been limited because they cannot be cultured

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.Lecanosticta acicola and Dothistroma septosporum trigger similar symptoms; host responses diverge sharply: Pinus pinea mounts robust defences, P. pinaster remains vulnerable, and P. radiata sustains growth. These contrasting strategies highlight species‐specific resilience and provide key insights for sustainable forest protection.

HIGH INFECTION PRESSURE OF ESFY PHYTOPLASMA THREATENS THE CULTIVATION OF STONE FRUIT SPECIES [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2009 Stone fruit species are affected by severe disease caused by European stone fruit yellows phytoplasma (ESFY; ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma prunorum’). ESFY phytoplasma is transmitted to the host plants of Prunus spp. by the vector Cacopsylla pruni. The disease

The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 2, January 2026.SUMMARY Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an important food crop that is sensitive to high temperatures, which cause major changes in the transcriptome and a reduction in yield. In several plant species, DNA methylation has been reported to influence gene expression, particularly under abiotic stress conditions.

Phytoplasmas and Phytoplasma Diseases: A Severe Threat to Agriculture
American 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.

Candidatus Phytoplasma trifolii (clover proliferation phytoplasma).
, 2021 Abstract The reference strain of 'Ca. Phytoplasma trifolii' is the causative agent of clover proliferation (CP) disease of alsike clover (Trifolium hybridum). The CP disease was first reported in Canada in the early 1960s when the aetiological agent was mistakenly presumed to be a yellows-type virus (Chiykowski, 1965). Subsequent investigations
