Coconut palm ( Cocos nucifera ), oil palm ( Elaeis guineensis ), Bermudagrass ( Cynodon dactylon ) and Madagascar periwinkle ( Catharanthus roseus ) with symptoms indicative of phytoplasma disease were collected from different locations in Malaysia. PCR assays employing phytoplasma universal rRNA gene primers P1/P7 alone or P1/P7 followed by R16F2n/R16R2 detected phytoplasmas in eight out of 20 Malayan Red Dwarf (MRD), nine out of 12 Malayan Yellow Dwarf (MYD) and 12 out of 12 Malayan Tall (MT) coconut palms displaying coconut yellow decline symptoms. Positive detections were also obtained from six out of six oil palm seedlings showing symptoms of yellowing and necrosis, from 10 out of 10 Bermudagrass samples with white leaf symptoms, and from eight out of eight periwinkle plants showing phyllody, virescence, little leaf, proliferation and foliar yellowing. Phytoplasmas were not detected in any of the symptomless plants tested. Sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of PCR products determined that phytoplasmas infecting both MRD and MT coconuts and Bermudagrass in Serdang, Selangor State, were all members of the 16SrXIV ' Candidatus Phytoplasma cynodontis' group, whereas isolates in periwinkle in Serdang were all members of the 16SrI ' Ca. Phytoplasma asteris' group. However, the phytoplasmas detected in MYD coconuts and oil palms from Banting, Selangor State, and in periwinkle from Putrajaya were collectively very similar (99%), but shared <97·5% similarity with 16S rDNA sequences of all other known phytoplasmas, indicating that they represent a novel taxonomic group. Thus, at least two phylogenetically distinct phytoplasmas are associated with the coconut yellow decline syndrome in Malaysia, both of which were also detected in other plant species.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) plants showing witches'-broom symptoms typical of phytoplasmas were observed from Al-Batinah, Al-Sharqiya, Al-Bureimi, and interior regions of the Sultanate of Oman. Phytoplasmas were detected from all symptomatic samples by the specific amplification of their 16S-23S rRNA gene. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), utilizing phytoplasma-specific universal primer pairs, consistently amplified a product of expected lengths when DNA extract from symptomatic samples was used as template. Asymptomatic plant samples and the negative control yielded no amplification. Restriction fragment length polymorphism profiles of PCR-amplified 16S-23S rDNA of alfalfa using the P1/P7 primer pair identified phytoplasmas belonging to peanut witches'-broom group (16SrII or faba bean phyllody). Restriction enzyme profiles showed that the phytoplasmas detected in all 300 samples belonged to the same ribosomal group. Extensive comparative analyses on P1/P7 amplimers of 20 phytoplasmas with Tru9I, Tsp509I, HpaII, TaqI, and RsaI clearly indicated that this phytoplasma is different from all the other phytoplasmas employed belonging to subgroup 16SrII, except tomato big bud phytoplasma from Australia, and could be therefore classified in subgroup 16SrII-D. The alfalfa witches'-broom (AlfWB) phytoplasma P1/P7 PCR product was sequenced directly after cloning and yielded a 1,690-bp product. The homology search showed 99% similarity (1,667 of 1,690 base identity) with papaya yellow crinkle (PapayaYC) phytoplasma from New Zealand. A phylogenetic tree based on 16S plus spacer regions sequences of 35 phytoplasmas, mainly from the Southern Hemisphere, showed that AlfWB is a new phytoplasma species, with closest relationships to PapayaYC phytoplasmas from New Zealand and Chinese pigeon pea witches'-broom phytoplasmas from Taiwan but distinguishable from them considering the different associated plant hosts and the extreme geographical isolation.  相似文献

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays were used to detect phytoplasmas in foliage samples from Chinaberry ( Melia azedarach ) trees displaying symptoms of yellowing, little leaf and dieback in Bolivia. A ribosomal coding nuclear DNA (rDNA) product (1·8 kb) was amplified from one or more samples from seven of 17 affected trees by PCR employing phytoplasma-universal rRNA primer pair P1/P7. When P1/P7 products were reamplified using nested rRNA primer pair R16F2n/R16R2, phytoplasmas were detected in at least one sample from 13 of 17 trees with symptoms. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of P1/P7 products indicated that trees CbY1 and CbY17 harboured Mexican periwinkle virescence (16SrXIII)-group and X-disease (16SrIII)-group phytoplasmas, respectively. Identification of two different phytoplasma types was supported by reamplification of P1/P7 products by nested PCR employing X-disease-group-specific rRNA primer pair R16mF2/WXint or stolbur-group-related primer pair fSTOL/rSTOL. These assays selectively amplified rDNA products of 1656 and 579 bp from nine and five trees with symptoms, respectively, of which two trees were coinfected with both phytoplasma types. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rDNA sequences revealed Chinaberry yellows phytoplasma strain CbY17 to be most similar to the chayote witches'-broom (ChWBIII-Ch10) agent, a previously classified 16SrIII-J subgroup phytoplasma. Strain CbY1 resembled the Mexican periwinkle virescence phytoplasma, a 16SrXIII-group member. The latter strain varied from all known phytoplasmas composing group 16SrXIII. On this basis, strain CbY1 was assigned to a new subgroup, 16SrXIII-C.  相似文献

EcoRI restriction fragments of genomic DNA from the phytoplasma associated with peanut witches'-broom (PNWB) were cloned in plasmid pGEM-3Zf(+). Cloned inserts from seven PNWB-phytoplasma-specific recombinant plasmids and two subcloned plasmids were excised with restriction enzymes, labeled with digoxigenin, and used as probes. Probe PNWB281 and its derivative subclones PNWB281-4 and PNWB281-5 hybridized with DNA from PNWB-phytoplasma infected peanut and periwinkle specifically but not with DNA from healthy plants or plants infected with phytoplasmas associated with sweetpotato witches'-broom (SPWB), loofah, Ipomoea obscura, and paulownia witches'-broom, elm and aster yellows, rice yellow dwarf, and bamboo little leaf disease. Six other probes hybridized with DNA derived from PNWB and SPWB-phytoplasma-affected periwinkle but not with DNA from healthy plants or plants infected with other phytoplasmas mentioned. In Southern hybridizations, four of the nine cloned and subcloned probes could differentiate the PNWB-phytoplasma from SPWB-phytoplasma. Three primer pairs for PCR were synthesized according to the partial sequences at both ends of the cloned inserts and were able to distinguish PNWB-phytoplasma from SPWB-phytoplasma by using PCR for the first time. A minimum of 1 pg and 10 pg of total DNA from diseased periwinkle and peanut, respectively, was sufficient to amplify the specific PNWB-phytoplasma PCR fragments, allowing the detection of PNWB-phytoplasma DNA from healthy-looking periwinkle plants two weeks after graft inoculation.  相似文献

Previously undescribed phytoplasmas were detected in diseased plants of dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) exhibiting virescence of flowers, thistle (Cirsium arvense) exhibiting symptoms of white leaf, and a Gaillardia sp. exhibiting symptoms of stunting and phyllody in Lithuania. On the basis of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of 16S rDNA amplified in PCR, the dandelion virescence (DanVir), cirsium whiteleaf (CirWL), and gaillardia phyllody (GaiPh) phytoplasmas were classified in phylogenetic group 16SrIII (X-disease phytoplasma group), new subgroups III-P and III-R and subgroup III-B, respectively. RFLP and nucleotide sequence analyses revealed 16S rRNA interoperon sequence heterogeneity in the two rRNA operons, rrnA and rrnB, of both DanVir and CirWL. Results from phylogenetic analysis based on nucleotide sequences of 16S rDNA were consistent with recognition of the two new subgroups as representatives of distinct new lineages within the group 16SrIII phytoplasma subclade. The branching order of rrnA and rrnB sequences in the phylogenetic tree supported this interpretation and indicated recent common ancestry of the two rRNA operons in each of the phytoplasmas exhibiting interoperon heterogeneity.  相似文献

The genetic relatedness of phytoplasmas associated with dieback (PDB), yellow crinkle (PYC) and mosaic (PM) diseases in papaya was studied by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of the 16S rRNA gene and 16S rRNA/23S rRNA spacer region (SR). RFLP and SR sequence comparisons indicated that PYC and PM phytoplasmas were identical and most closely related to members of the faba bean phyllody strain cluster. By comparison the PDB phytoplasma was most closely related to Phormium yellow leaf (PYL) phytoplasma from New Zealand and the Australian grapevine yellows (AGY) phytoplasma from Australia. These three phytoplasmas cluster with the stolbur and German grapevine yellows (VK) phytoplasmas within the aster yellows strain cluster. Primers based on the phytoplasma tuf gene, which amplify gene products from members of the AY strain cluster, also amplified a DNA product from the PDB phytoplasma but not from either the PYC or PM phytoplasmas. Primers deduced from the 16S rRNA/SR selectively amplified rDNA sequences from the PDB and AGY phytoplasmas but not from other members of the stolbur strain cluster. Similarly, primers designed from 16S rRNA/SR amplified rDNA from the PYC and PM phytoplasmas but not from the PDB phytoplasma. These primers may provide for more specific detection of these pathogens in epidemiological studies.  相似文献

海南长春花黄化病植原体的16S rDNA序列分析研究   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  
 Periwinkle(Catharanthus roseus) yellows is a common disease in Hainan. Periwinkle's leaf tissue with symptoms was assayed for phytoplasma infection by using PCR assay employing phytoplasma universal 16S rRNA gene primers (Rl6mF2/Rl6mR1). A PCR product (about 1.4 kb) was amplified from periwinkle showed yellows. Nucleotide sequencing and phylogenetic tree analysis showed that the amplified 16S rDNA contained 1 432 nucleotides, the most homology was 98.1% with the members of elm yellows group (16S r Ⅴ) and clustered in the same clade, while it was under 96.1% with other phytoplasma groups. Our results suggested that the phytoplasma sample belonged to 16S rⅤgroup and was tentatively named as Hainan periwinkle yellows phytoplasma (PY-Hn). This is the first report of existence of 16S r Ⅴ group phytoplasma in naturally infected periwinkle.  相似文献

Primer pairs were designed from a cloned DNA probe of a strain of flavescence dorée (FD) phytoplasma and from a cloned DNA probe of a strain of stolbur phytoplasma. Among an array of reference phytoplasma strains maintained in periwinkle, pair FD9f/r amplified a 1.3 kb DNA fragment only with phytoplasma strains of elm yellows (EY) group, i.e. two strains of FD and two strains of EY. Tru9I restriction analysis of the fragment amplified by FD9f/r revealed a diversity among EY-group phytoplasmas. The FD strains differed from the strains isolated from elm. The profile of the phytoplasmas infecting the grapevine samples from Catalonia and most of the samples from Northern Italy were identical to that of a FD strain. Three other profiles were detected in grapevine from Palatinate, in Germany.The two primer pairs derived from a stolbur strain, STOL4f/r and STOL11f2/r1, specifically amplified a 1.7 kb and a 0.9 kb DNA fragment, respectively, with all strains in the stolbur subgroup. However, the pair STOL4f/r did not recognise strain MOL. Both pairs allowed to detect phytoplasmas in diseased grapevines from France, Italy, Spain and Israel. Attempts to differentiate between phytoplasmas in the stolbur subgroup by restriction analyses failed. The pairs FD9f/r and STOL11f2/r1 could be used in the same reaction (multiplex PCR) to detect EY-group phytoplasmas, stolbur-subgroup phytoplasmas or both phytoplasmas simultaneously when template DNAs were mixed.  相似文献

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). Pleomorphic bodies resembling phytoplasmas were observed in sieve tube elements of symptomatic plants but not in healthy ones. DNA from all symptomatic sunflower plants analysed yielded, in direct PCR with phytoplasma universal primers P1/P7 and R16F2n/R2, fragments of expected size 1.8 kb and 1.2 kb, respectively. The phytoplasma associated with the disease, was named Sunflower Phyllody (SunPhy). Real and putative RFLP of the 16S rDNA showed the affiliation of SunPhy to 16SrIII (X-disease group), subgroup J. The 16S rDNA sequence from SunPhy showed the highest identity (99 %) with 16SrIII members and the phylogenetic tree confirmed a closer relationship to subgroup J of the 16SIII ribosomal group. This is the first report of a phytoplasma related to the 16SrIII group affecting sunflower.  相似文献

Flax plants (Linum usitatissimum) of the white (album) flower variety exhibiting typical phytoplasma-like symptoms were found for the first time in Pakistan during 2011. The symptoms included floral virescence, phyllody, little leaf, stunting and stem fasciation. Light microscopy of hand-cut stem sections treated with Dienes’ stain showed blue areas in the phloem region of symptomatic plants. To confirm phytoplasma infection, total DNA was extracted separately from five plants showing virescence/phyllody and from five others showing fasciation, and was amplified by nested PCR using universal 16S rDNA phytoplasma primers P1/P7 followed by R16F2n/R16R2. All samples from plants with virescence/phyllody and fasciation yielded a 1,250 bp PCR product, and identical RFLP profiles using the enzymes AluI and HpaII. Direct sequencing of the 16S rDNA of one representative PCR amplicon (GenBank Accession No. JX567504 for phyllody and Accession No. JX567505 for fasciation) showed highest sequence identity (99%) with 16SrII ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifolia’ phytoplasmas, and phylogenetic analysis placed the phytoplasma in subgroup 16SrII-D. Disease was successfully transmitted by grafting and by the leafhopper Orosius albicinctus. To our knowledge, flax is a new natural host for 16SrII-D phytoplasmas in Pakistan.  相似文献

A new phytoplasma disease of Rehmannia glutinosa var. purpurea was observed in the Czech Republic in 1998. Infected plants showing severely proliferating shoots, leaves reduced in size with vein clearing and chlorosis, shortened internodes and virescent petals died in advanced stages of the disease. Electron microscopy examination of the ultra-thin sections revealed the presence of numerous polymorphic bodies in phloem tissue of leaf midribs and petioles. The disease was successfully transmitted from infected plant via a dodder bridge into periwinkle ( Catharanthus roseus ). The phytoplasma aetiology of this disease was further confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using universal primers R16F2/R16R2. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of amplification products indicated the presence of aster yellows related phytoplasmas (16SrI-B) in naturally infected samples of R. glutinosa var . purpurea and in symptomatic periwinkle after dodder transmission of the agent. A comparison of the amplified sequence with 17 sequences available in the GenBank confirmed the classification of the phytoplasma in the subgroup 16SrI-B. This is the first report of natural occurrence of phytoplasma-associated disease in R. glutinosa var. purpurea.  相似文献

Withania somnifera is an important medicinal plant native to the Indian-sub continent. Owing to the presence of a number of precious alkaloids, flavonoids and withanolides, it is widely used in the Indian and African systems of medicines. It is severely affected by phytoplasma present in the sieve tubes of phloem. With a view to micropropagate phytoplasma-free W. somnifera plants, an efficient and effective nested PCR-based system was developed for detection of associated phytoplasmas. Universal primers, designed from the 16S rDNA sequences of phytoplasmas, were applied in direct/nested-PCR. Total DNA extracts from leaf tissues of 33 suspected symptomatic and 11 non-symptomatic plants were subjected to direct PCR. The direct PCR products were subsequently employed as templates in nested PCR. The nested PCR could reamplify direct PCR products yielding a DNA fragment of 1.4 kb. A phytoplasma was detected in all the diseased plants and not from the healthy looking plants. Further, it was sensitive enough to amplify phytoplasma DNA obtained from crude DNA diluted up to 2500 times from naturally infected plants and also from various stages of in vitro-propagated diseased plants. Identical restriction fragment polymorphism enzyme profiles were obtained following restriction enzyme digestion of nested PCR products, obtained from five different plants, by EcoRI, AluI and RsaI restriction endonucleases. The developed nested PCR based system should facilitate indexing of the phytoplasma in different stages of in vitro-generated plants and probably identification of, as yet unknown, hosts and vectors of phytoplasma associated with phytoplasma disease of W. somnifera.  相似文献

Restriction fragment length polymorphism and sequence analysis of PCR-amplified ribosomal DNA were used to identify and classify phytoplasmas associated with diseases of various wild and cultivated plants. The diseases examined were either not known before or the presumable causal agents were not yet identified and characterized or were only known from other geographic areas. New diseases examined were those causing virescence and phyllody of Bunias orientalis and Cardaria draba. Both were associated with strains of the aster yellows phytoplasma. The same type of aster yellows phytoplasma was also found to be associated with yellows and phyllody diseases of Portulaca oleracea, Stellaria media, Daucus carota ssp. sativus, and Cyclamen persicum. In German and French DNA samples from diseased Trifolium repens, the clover phyllody phytoplasma was identified, which could clearly be distinguished from other phytoplasmas of the aster yellows group. Strains of the stolbur phytoplasma were detected in big bud-affected tomatoes and almost exclusively in Convolvulus arvensis. In Cirsium arvense and Picris echioides two distinct phytoplasmas were identified which showed relationship to the sugarcane white leaf phytoplasma group but may represent a new group or subgroup. In Conyza (syn.: Erigeron) canadensis a phytoplasma of the X-disease group was detected. A strain from Gossypium hirsutum showed the same restriction profiles as the faba bean phyllody phytoplasma.  相似文献

Red clover (Trifolium pratense) and Ladino clover (Trifolium repens) plants showing phytoplasma-associated symptoms (yellowing/reddening, virescence and phyllody) have been recovered in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy. Using AluI RFLP analysis of PCR amplified 16S rDNA we showed that the disease can be caused independently by two phylogenetically distinct phytoplasmas. One of them showed the very typical 16S rDNA RFLP pattern of the agent of Clover Phyllody in Canada (CCPh). The 16S rDNA of the other phytoplasma (Italian Clover Phyllody phytoplasma, ICPhp) has been PCR amplified, cloned and sequenced. The sequence revealed high similarity (>98%) with phytoplasmas belonging to the X disease cluster, which includes organisms not reported to cause phyllody on their hosts. The analysis by AluI RFLP of the PCR amplified pathogen 16S rDNA from other herbaceous plants (Crepis biennis, Taraxacum officinale, Leucanthemum vulgare) collected nearby with phytoplasma-associated symptoms showed similar patterns. Southern blot hybridization of their EcoRI digested total DNA revealed identical RFLP patterns, suggesting that the causative agent may be the same organism.Abbreviations PCR Polymerase Chain Reaction - rDNA gene for the small subunit ribosomal RNA - RFLP Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism  相似文献

Purple coneflower plants showing leaf reddening and flower abnormalities were observed in South Bohemia (Czech Republic). Transmission electron microscopy observations showed phytoplasmas in sieve cells of symptomatic plants but not in healthy ones. Polymerase chain reactions with universal and group specific phytoplasma primers followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analyses of 16S rDNA allowed us to classify the detected phytoplasmas into the X-disease group, ribosomal subgroup 16SrIII-B. Sequence analyses of the 16S-23S ribosomal operon (1684 bp), ribosomal protein L15, and protein translocase genes (1566 bp) confirmed the closest relationship with phytoplasmas belonging to the 16SrIII ribosomal group, specifically the 16SrIII-B subgroup. The current study reports purple coneflower as a new host for the X-disease phytoplasma group in the Czech Republic and worldwide.  相似文献

A terminal restriction fragment analysis (T-RFLP) technique was developed for the simple and rapid detection and diagnosis of phytoplasmas in plants. The selected primers amplified part of the 23S rRNA gene to provide improved resolution between the taxonomic groups compared to conventional restriction enzyme analysis of the 16S rRNA. Using the restriction enzymes Bsh 12361 and Mse I on the PCR products, and fragment analysis in the range 68–640 bp, the technique was tested on 37 isolates from 10 of the 16Sr groups. Distinct and unambiguous T-RFLP profiles were produced for nine of the 10 taxonomic groups, such that almost all isolates within a group shared the same profile and could be distinguished from isolates in other groups. The technique also identified the presence of mixtures of phytoplasmas from different groups in samples. Furthermore, the primers were devised to amplify a terminal restriction fragment (TRF) product of a specific defined size (461 bp) from the host plant chloroplast DNA, so that there was a built-in internal control in the procedure to show that the absence of a phytoplasma peak in a sample was the result of no detectable phytoplasma being present, not the result of PCR inhibition. This method offers the possibility of simultaneously detecting and providing a taxonomic grouping for phytoplasmas in test samples using a single PCR reaction.  相似文献

Foliar and root symptoms are described for Australian lucerne yellows (ALuY), a disease common in Australian lucerne seed crops. A phytoplasma was detected in plants exhibiting symptoms, but not in symptomless lucerne plants. Oligonucleotide primers specific to the phytoplasma 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer region (SR) were used in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays on DNA extracted from lucerne plants with and without symptoms. Identical restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) enzyme profiles were obtained for PCR products amplified from 10 yellows-affected lucerne samples. RFLP profiles obtained for four restriction enzymes were different from those of the tomato big bud (TBB) phytoplasma. ALuY phytoplasma PCR products were sequenced to determine phylogeny and were found to fall within the faba bean phyllody phytoplasma group, or phytoplasma group 16srII. Transmission electron microscopy revealed phytoplasmas in the phloem of yellows-affected plant samples, but not in symptomless plant samples. Fungal, bacterial and viral agents in the aetiology of Australian lucerne yellows were ruled out.  相似文献

A phytoplasma was detected in annual blue grass (Poa annua L. Fienardo), exhibiting white leaf symptoms, that was grown in the fields near Caserta in southern Italy. Based on restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of PCR-amplified 16S rDNA sequences, the phytoplasma associated with annual blue grass white leaf disease was identified as a new member of phytoplasma 16S rRNA group XI (16SrXI) (type strain, rice yellow dwarf phytoplasma). The annual blue grass white leaf phytoplasma is most closely related to Bermuda grass white leaf phytoplasma found in Asia. Annul blue grass white leaf and Bermuda grass white leaf phytoplasmas were designated as the third subgroup (16SrXI-C) of group XI. This is the first report that a plant pathogenic phytoplasma belonging to group 16SrXI is present on the European continent.  相似文献
