Transcriptomic Analysis of Paulownia Infected by Paulownia Witches'-Broom Phytoplasma
Phytoplasmas are plant pathogenic bacteria that have no cell wall and are responsible for major crop losses throughout the world. Phytoplasma-infected plants show a variety of symptoms and the mechanisms they use to physiologically alter the host plants are of considerable interest, but poorly understood. In this study we undertook a detailed analysis of Paulownia infected by Paulownia witches'...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of Mycobacterium leprae elongation factor (EF-Tu) gene.
The elongation factor EF-Tu is essential in bacterial translation and has sequences which are highly conserved even in phylogenetically distant bacteria. This allowed us to show that Gram negative bacteria had two copies of the tuf gene whereas most Gram positive bacteria including Mycobacteria had one copy of this gene (1). The agent of leprosy, Mycobacterium leprae, has been isolated from nat...
متن کاملThe phytoplasma associated with ash yellows and lilac witches'-broom: 'Candidatus phytoplasma fraxini'.
Phytoplasmas associated with the plant diseases ash yellows (AshY, occurring in Fraxinus) and lilac witches'-broom (LWB, occurring in Syringa) represent a putative species-level taxon. Phytoplasmal DNA from 19 ash or lilac sources across the known geographic range of AshY (71-113 degrees W) was examined to determine if AshY and LWB phytoplasmas are a coherent group, if variability exists in bot...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifolia’ associated with witches’ broom on acid lime trees
"Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifolia" is associated with witches' broom disease of lime in Oman and the UAE. A previous study showed that an infection by phytoplasma may not necessarily result in the physical appearance of witches' broom symptoms in some locations in Oman and the UAE. This study investigated whether phytoplasma strains belonging to "Ca. P. aurantifolia" (based on the 16S rRNA g...
متن کامل'Candidatus Phytoplasma brasiliense', a new phytoplasma taxon associated with hibiscus witches' broom disease.
Hibiscus rosa-sinensis is a valuable ornamental species widely planted in Brazil. Many plants are affected by witches' broom disease, which is characterized by excessive axillary branching, abnormally small leaves, and deformed flowers, symptoms that are characteristic of diseases attributed to phytoplasmas. A phytoplasma was detected in diseased Hibiscus by amplification of rRNA operon sequenc...
