AFLP data suggest a potential role for the low genetic diversity of acid lime (Citrus aurantifolia Swingle) in Oman in the outbreak of witches’ broom disease of lime

2012-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Acid lime (Citrus aurantifolia) is the fourth largest fruit crop in terms of cultivated area and production in Oman. However, over half a million lime trees were lost in Oman over the past 35 years due to witches’ broom disease of lime (WBDL) which is caused by Candidatus phytoplasma aurantifolia. This study was conducted to examine genetic diversity of acid lime in Oman. AFLP analysis of 143 acid lime samples fro...
