Occurrence and Genetic Diversity of Winona-Like Plum pox virus Isolates in Russia

Occurrence and Genetic Diversity of Winona-Like Plum pox virus Isolates in Russia | Plant health | Scoop.it
From apsjournals.apsnet.org - July 11, 2012 3:21 PM

In studying the distribution and genetic diversity of Plum pox virus (PPV) in Russia, over a dozen new PPV isolates belonging to the strain Winona (PPV-W) were identified by immunocapture reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. The data obtained indicate wide dissemination of PPV-W isolate in stone fruit in the European part of the former USSR.

Phytoplasmas, vectors and measures for disease control

The most widespread phytoplasmas, vectors and measures for disease control in Slovenia


Phytoplasmas, as fastidious wall-less mollicutes, colonize phloem tissue of many plant species, including grapevine and fruit trees. They are transmitted between plants by vegetative propagation and by sap-sucking insect vectors, which enable spread of the diseases.

‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’, associated with apple proliferation, ‘Ca. P. prunorum’, associated with European stone fruit yellows and ‘Ca. P. pyri’, associated with pear decline, were detected in several fruit-growing areas of Slovenia. The most widespread phytoplasma on grapevine in Slovenia was the stolbur phytoplasma, (‘bois noir’), but ‘Flavescence dorée’ phytoplasma, associated with serious disease of grapevine, has been detected in Slovenian vineyards.
