The recent discovery of Bogia coconut syndrome in Papua New Guinea (PNG) is the first
report of a lethal yellowing disease (LYD) in Oceania. Numerous outbreaks of LYDs of …

Phytoplasmas are plant-pathogenic, phloem-colonizing, cell wall-less microorganisms that
are primarily dependent on insect transmission for their spread and survival. The life cycle of …

Bois noir, a disease of the grapevine yellows complex, is associated with 'Candidatus
Phytoplasma solani'and transmitted to grapevines in open fields by the cixiids Hyalesthes …

Phytoplasmas, uncultivable phloem-limited phytopathogenic wall-less bacteria, represent a
major threat to agriculture worldwide. They are transmitted in a persistent, propagative …

The different aspects involved in the transmission of phytoplasmas by insect vectors
(leafhoppers, planthoppers, and psyllids) are presented from an ecological point of view …

Background Phytoplasmas are bacterial plant pathogens (class Mollicutes), transmitted by
phloem feeding leafhoppers, planthoppers and psyllids in a persistent/propagative manner …

Two bacterial symbionts of the European pest leafhopper, Macrosteles quadripunctulatus
(Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), were fully sequenced.“Candidatus Sulcia muelleri” and “Ca …

Insect vectors can acquire more than one phytoplasma species/strain, either by feeding on
multiple-infected source plants or by feeding sequentially on different plants infected by …

Phytoplasmas are phloem-restricted plant pathogens transmitted by leafhoppers,
planthoppers, and psyllids (Hemiptera). Most known phytoplasma vectors belong to the …
