This study was carried out in the vineyards of North East of Iran in two separate locations during 2007-2008. Molecular analyses of nucleic acid extracted from leaf midribs and petiols of plants showing a decline syndrome allow the identification of phytoplasmas related to stolbur that could be differentiated from any other stolbur strain reported in grapevine or in other hosts by RFLP and sequencing analyses of 16Sr RNA gene. This is the first report of phytoplasmas infecting grapevine in Iran.

Abstract
This study was carried out in the vineyards of North East of Iran in two separate locations during 2007-2008. Molecular analyses of nucleic acid extracted from leaf midribs and petiols of plants showing a decline syndrome allow the identification of phytoplasmas related to stolbur that could be differentiated from any other stolbur strain reported in grapevine or in other hosts by RFLP and sequencing analyses of 16Sr RNA gene. This is the first report of phytoplasmas infecting grapevine in Iran.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
