Since 2005 the National Plant Protection Service in Bulgaria is carrying a monitoring program for detection, among other quar-antine pests and pathogens, of quarantine phytoplasmas. During this program symptoms referable to phytoplasma diseases were observed in cherry trees; sampling and molecular analyses allow to verify presence of stolbur phytoplasmas in symptomatic plants of cherry and in bindweed plants in the same orchards suggesting the association of the disease in cherry with these prokaryotes

During this program symptoms referable to phytoplasma diseases were observed in cherry trees; sampling and molecular analyses allow to verify presence of stolbur phytoplasmas in symptomatic plants of cherry and in bindweed plants in the same orchards suggesting the association of the disease in cherry with these prokaryotesI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
