Abstract excerpt
Xylella fastidiosa causes many important plant diseases including Pierce's disease (PD) in grape and almond leaf scorch disease (ALSD). DNA-based methodologies, such as randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis, have been playing key roles in genetic information collection of the bacterium. This study further analyzed the nucleotide sequences of selected RAPDs from X. fastidiosa strains in conjunction...
