Detection of phormium yellow leaf phytoplasma in New Zealand flax (Phormium tenax) using nested PCRs.
1998-04-01
Abstract excerpt
A reliable diagnostic method was developed for use in studying the relationship between phormium yellow leaf disease of New Zealand flax (Phormium tenax) and its associated phytoplasma (phormium yellow leaf phytoplasma: PYL). Diagnosis involved a nested PCR (polymerase chain reaction) technique targeting the 16S rRNA gene. DNA was extracted from woody rhizome tissues of NZ flax plants using CTAB and a high salt pr...
