Numerous yellows-type diseases of plants have been associated with wall-less prokaryote
pathogens–phytoplasmas over the last 40 years. These pathogens are not grown in axenic …

Several economically relevant phytoplasma-associated diseases are described together
with an update of phytoplasma taxonomy and major biological and molecular features of …

SUMMARY Taxonomy: Superkingdom Prokaryota; Kingdom Monera; Domain Bacteria;
Phylum Firmicutes (low‐G+ C, Gram‐positive eubacteria); Class Mollicutes; Candidatus …

A summary of the research carried out on phytoplasma-associated diseases 50 years after
their discovery is presented. The great majority of this research was devoted to classification …

Apple proliferation (AP), pear decline (PD) and European stone fruit yellows (ESFY) are
among the most economically important plant diseases that are caused by phytoplasmas …

Many insect-transmissible pathogens are transmitted by specific insect species and not by
others, even if they are closely related. The molecular mechanisms underlying such strict …

The chromosome sequence of “Candidatus Phytoplasma australiense”(subgroup tuf-
Australia I; rp-A), associated with dieback in papaya, Australian grapevine yellows in …

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 …

Recent studies have suggested that bedrock groundwater can exert considerable influence
on runoff generation, water chemistry, and the occurrence of landslides in headwater …

A gene that encodes a putative SecE protein, which is a component of the Sec protein-
translocation system, was cloned from the onion yellows phytoplasma (OY). The …
