Phylogenetic relationships of coconut phytoplasmas and the development of specific oligonucleotide PCR primers.
1998-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Using the polymerase chain reaction the 16S rRNA genes and the 16S-23S spacer regions of phytoplasmas associated with lethal decline diseases of coconut palm (Cocos nucifera), were amplified from infected plants from Florida and the Yucatan region in Mexico and from east and west Africa. Following sequencing of the rDNA products, phylogenetic analysis confirmed that these coconut phytoplasmas form a separate clust...
