Molecular identification and characterization of ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma convolvuli’-related strains (representing a new 16SrXII-O subgroup) associated with papaya bunchy top disease in Nigeria

2021-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Beginning in 2018, a new papaya disease occurred in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. Affected papaya trees exhibited symptoms including excessive shoot proliferation at the top of the crown, leaf mosaic and crinkling, and dieback. The disease was designated as Nigerian papaya bunchy top (NGPBT) disease. Since excessive shoot proliferation was the most characteristic symptom of the disease and it was indicative of phyto...
