Five decades of research on phytoplasma-induced witches’ broom diseases

Abstract: Phytoplasmas, prokaryotic wall-less microorganisms, are important pathogens of several plant species in most parts of the world. Phytoplasmas have been reported associated with various symptoms on hundreds of plant species. Witches' broom disease (WBD) is one of the most common disease symptoms, which is caused by phytoplasma strains belonging to different phytoplasma groups. Symptoms of the disease differ from one host to the other as well as from one phytoplasma strain to the other. However, WBD symptoms are… Show more

Although the transmission of phytoplasmas among palms has been intensively studied, to date the only insect vector identified is Haplaxius crudus, which is known to transmit 'Ca.…”

“…In general, the symptoms of witches' broom are associated with phytoplasma infections and have been reported in more than 116 plant species [19], making phytoplasma an emergent group of crop pathogens [20,21]. Nevertheless, phytoplasma detected in cassava in the Americas (ribosomal group 16SrIII) is found in plants with different symptoms such as a frogskin-like appearance of the roots [22][23][24], or a proliferation of shoots starting at the base of the main stem [25,26].…”

“…To conclude this section, additional diseases of royal palms associated with phytoplasmas not enclosed in group 16SrIV will be mentioned briefly as LY-like diseases -as a whole-negatively impact palms not only in the Caribbean Basin but all over the world (Hemmati et al, 2020). So far, the only known examples are the association of group 16SrII phytoplasmas with R. borinquena in Puerto Rico (Simbaña Carrera, 2019) and of subgroup 16SrII-D phytoplasmas with R. regia in Oman (Hemmati et al, 2021).…”
