Detection and differentiation of African coconut phytoplasmas: RFLP analysis of PCR-amplified 16S rDNA and DNA hybridisation.

1997-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Phytoplasmas associated with lethal decline diseases of the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera) in west and east Africa were detected by the specific amplification of their 16S rRNA genes. The primers used were based on conserved mollicute-specific and coconut-phytoplasma 16S rRNA gene sequences. Phytoplasma 16S rDNA was amplified from all African decline affected palms, some periwinkle maintained phytoplasmas, but not...
