Genetic diversity of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter africanus’ in South Africa based on microsatellite markers
2021-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Citrus Greening disease (CG) in South Africa (SA) is associated with the fastidious bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter africanus’ (Laf). It has been observed that Laf isolates obtained from different geographic localities in SA differed in the rate of transmission during grafting experiments leading to the hypothesis that genetic variation of Laf may exist in this country. To determine this, 167 Laf isolates obtai...
