Advances in characterization and epidemiology of strawberry viruses and phytoplasmas in Argentina
(2017-04)The presence of systemic pathogens, such as viruses and phytoplasmas, in strawberry plants is the usual situation worldwide. More than 20 virus species and 6 phytoplasmas 16Sr groups have been cited infecting strawberries ... -
‘Ca. Phytoplasma pruni’ and ‘Ca. Phytoplasma meliae’ are affecting plum in Argentina
(Springer, 2020-09-29)We report for the first time the presence of phytoplasmas in association with Plum (Prunus domestica) yellowing in Argentina. Molecular analysis of 16S rDNA gene sequence (RFLP, phylogeny) reveals the existence of two ... -
Detection and identification of a 16SrIII-J phytoplasma affecting cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) in Argentina
(Springer; Australasian Plant Pathology Society, 2018-12)Cassava plants displaying symptoms of dwarfing, witches’ broom, and chlorosis, were detected in production fields located in Misiones province Argentina. The RFLP profiles and phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA and ... -
Detection and identification of a novel 16SrXIII subgroup phytoplasma associated with strawberry red leaf disease in Argentina
(2015-08)Strawberry red leaf phytoplasma was found in strawberry plants from production fields in Lules (Tucumán province) and Bella Vista (Corrientes province), Argentina. Characteristic strawberry red leaf symptoms were stunting, ... -
Detection and molecular characterization of a phytoplasma affecting Prunus persica L. in Jujuy, Argentina
(Springer, 2013-04)Peach (Prunus persica L.) plants with symptoms of yellowing, reddening, curling and leaf necrosis, premature defoliation and internode shortening were observed in production fields in Jujuy province (Argentina). A phytoplasma ... -
Draft Genome Sequence of " Candidatus Phytoplasma pruni" (X-Disease Group, Subgroup 16SrIII-B) Strain ChTDIII from Argentina
(American Society for Microbiology, 2020-08-24)Herein, we report the draft genome sequence of “Candidatus Phytoplasma pruni” strain ChTDIII (subgroup 16SrIII-B). The final assembly consists of 790,517 nucleotides organized in 67 contigs (minimal size, 1 kb), with a G+C ... -
First biological data of Ceresa nigripectus [Hemiptera:Membracidae], a common treehopper on alfalfa crops in Argentina
(2014-12)Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.; Fabaceae) is essential for argentinean agricultural development, but diseases like “witches´ broom», caused by the ArAWB phytoplasma, are limiting factors for the production of this crop. ... -
First report of a ‘Candidatus phytoplasma pyri’ strain in Argentina
(Springer, 2017-12)During the 2015 growing season, peach plants (Prunus persica) showing chlorotic, curling leaves and midrib thickening were detected in production fields in Mendoza province (Midwest region, Argentina). These symptoms ... -
Genetic diversity of 16SrIII group phytoplasmas in Argentina. Predominance of subgroups 16SrIII-J and B and two new subgroups 16SrIII-W and X
(Springer, 2013-12)Twelve Argentinean 16SrIII (X-disease)-group phytoplasma strains were analyzed. Ten of them, detected in daisy (Bellis perennis), garlic (Allium sativum), ‘lagaña de perro’ (Caesalpinia gilliesii), periwinkle (Catharanthus ... -
Identification and molecular characterization of a phytoplasma associated with sunflower in Argentina
(Springer, 2014-04)Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants showing capitulum with virescence, phyllody and flower malformation, shortened internodes and abnormal branches were found in a field in Pedro Luro (Buenos Aires province, Argentina). ... -
