Rapid Detection by Genomic Amplification of Loofah Witches' Broom Phytoplasma in Leafhopper Vectors
2008-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Loofah (Luffa cylindrical) is a common vegetable crop in Taiwan and other Asian countries. Reported here is a novel rapid approach for detecting loofah witches' broom (LfWB) phytoplasma in single leafhoppers. Field samples of suspected diseased plants and potential vectors from southern Taiwan were processed to test for the presence of the LfWB phytoplasmas using both strain-specific DNA hybridization (DH) and pol...
