1. Molecular characterization of a phytoplasma associated with a commercial variety of Momordica charantia
ABSTRACT: Momordica charantia (bitter melon) presents two distinct types or varieties, known as wild type and commercial type. Plants of the wild type are hosts of a phytoplasma of the group 16SrIII-J, which is associated with a disease known as witches’ broom. However, this disease has not yet been reported in commercial bitter melon. Thus, symptomatic pl

2. Sesame phyllody associated with a 16SrI-B phytoplasma, a ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris’-related strain, in Paraguay
ABSTRACT: Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) plants exhibiting symptoms of phyllody disease were observed in commercial fields in Paraguay. The symptoms were indicative of infection by phytoplasmas. Thus, the present study investigated the association between affected plants and phytoplasma, which was later analyzed using molecular and phylogenetic methods. Total D

3. Detection and molecular characterization of cactus witches'-broom disease associated with a group 16SrII phytoplasma in northern areas of China
In July 2010, cacti with typical phytoplasma symptoms were observed in Yangling district, Shaanxi Province, China. Based on amplification of 16S rRNA gene, phytoplasmas were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) driven with universal primer pairs P1/ P7, followed by a nested PCR with universal primer pairs R16F2n/R16R2. Fragments of expected sizes (1.8

4. 'Candidatus Phytoplasma cynodontis' associated with white leaf disease of golden beard grass (Chrysopogon acicalatus)
A phytoplasma was detected in golden beard grass (Chrysopogon acicalatus) displaying white leaf symptoms near vegetative fields at the Tatkone region in Myanmar, 2011. Based on restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of PCR-amplified 16S rRNA genes, including the 16S-23S spacer region and part of the 23S rRNA gene, the phytoplasma was identified as

5. Guazuma ulmifolia (Sterculiaceae), a new natural host of 16SrXV phytoplasma in Costa Rica
Guacimo trees (Guazuma ulmifolia, Sterculiaceae) showing witches' broom symptoms (GWB), small leaves, short internodes, stunting and no flower and fruit production were observed on side roads and fences in different areas of Costa Rica. The occurrence of phytoplasma infection in GWB trees was evaluated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and by molecu

6. Cauliflower stunt: molecular identification of phytoplasmas, evidence of potential vector and epidemiological analysis of the disease / Enfezamento da couve-flor: identificação molecular de fitoplasmas, evidência de potencial vetor e análise epidemiológica da doença
A couve-flor está entre as folhosas mais produzidas na região do Cinturão Verde de São Paulo. A planta apresenta alto valor nutricional para os consumidores e relevante importância econômica e social para os agricultores. Em campos comerciais, têm sido observadas plantas exibindo sintomas de enfezamento e deformação da inflorescência, além da necr

7. Molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the phytoplasma agent of the witchesbroom of cassava (Manihot esculenta) in São Paulo State. / Caracterização molecular e análise filogenética do fitoplasma agente do superbrotamento da mandioca (Manihot esculenta) no estado de São Paulo
A mandioca (Manihot esculenta) é uma das principais culturas exploradas no mundo, sendo o Brasil o segundo maior produtor. Cultivada em todas as regiões brasileiras, a mandioca é importante na indústria e na alimentação humana e animal. Em plantios instalados em campo experimental e comercial, nas cidades de Piracicaba/SP e Bragança Paulista/SP, respe

8. Identificação molecular de um fitoplasma associado à malformação das folhas das ornamentais Celosia argentea L. e Celosia spicata L. / Molecular identification of a phytoplasma associated with malformation of the leaves of Celosia argentea L. and Celosia spicata L.
Plants belonging to the species Celosia argentea and Celosia spicata are appreciated as ornamentals due to their colorful flowers. Recently, plants of both species exhibiting typical symptoms induced by phytoplasmas, characterized by deformed leaves, proliferation of axillary shoots, stunt and phyllody were found in public places in Piracicaba, SP, Brazil.

9. Passion fruit proliferation phytoplasma: molecular identification, phylogenetic analysis and proof of pathogenicity / Fitoplasma do superbrotamento do maracujazeiro: identificação molecular, análise filogenética e prova de patogenicidade
Phytoplasmas are cell wall-less prokaryotes and phloem-inhabitants associated with diseases that affect several crops. Passion fruit plant is a tropical species cultivated in various Brazilian regions. Diseases are among factors that may cause damage to this crop and the passion fruit witchesbroom has been revealed as very important one. That disease, associ

10. Molecular identification of phytoplasmas associated to cabbage stunt and epidemiological analysis of disease / Identificação molecular de fitoplasmas associados ao enfezamento do repolho e análise epidemiológica da doença
A disease called stunt, of unknown etiology, has occurred in cabbage crops located in the green belt region of the São Paulo State (Brazil). The disease has caused serious yield losses in the last years. The symptomatology exhibited by the affected plants has been characterized by foliar chlorosis, intense red coloration of leafs, general stunt, shoot proli

11. Phylogeny of mycoplasmalike organisms (phytoplasmas): a basis for their classification.
A global phylogenetic analysis using parsimony of 16S rRNA gene sequences from 46 mollicutes, 19 mycoplasmalike organisms (MLOs) (new trivial name, phytoplasmas), and several related bacteria placed the MLOs definitively among the members of the class Mollicutes and revealed that MLOs form a large discrete monophyletic clade, paraphyletic to the Acholeplasma

12. Physical Map of the Chromosome of the Apple Proliferation Phytoplasma
A physical map of the apple proliferation phytoplasma strain AT chromosome was constructed from genomic DNA extracted from diseased tobacco plants. The map was generated with single and double digestions of the chromosome with BssHII, SmaI, MluI, and ApaI restriction endonucleases and resolving the fragments by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Partial diges
