“…Molecular tools such as PCR/RFLP and nested-PCR on 16S rDNA were developed and established to ascertain a standard and reliable system of identification and classification of phytoplasmas in ribosomal groups and subgroups obtained by RFLP and/or virtual RFLP analyses of the 16S ribosomal gene amplicon or sequence with a number of restriction enzymes (Lee et al, 1998a; Zhao et al, 2009). Since they were only recently cultured (Contaldo et al, 2012, 2016, 2019), biological i.e., classical methods for classification are not available as yet. Currently, phytoplasmas are categorized into 33 ribosomal groups comprising a number of subgroups each (Bertaccini and Lee, 2018).…”

“…Their discovery stimulated worldwide investigation and numerous plant diseases were associated with the consistent presence of MLOs. These bacteria were long considered unculturable, but about 10 years ago, colonies containing molecularly different phytoplasmas began to be obtained in artificial media from different infected plant species ( Figure 2 ) [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ].…”

“…A preliminary evaluation of the in vitro antimicrobial activity in phytoplasma colonies ( Figure 2 ) was performed using seven antibiotics against two phytoplasma isolates from coconut plants infected by lethal yellowing disease [ 31 , 32 ]. The standard disc diffusion method was employed using a selection of the antibiotics previously demonstrated able to reduce the phytoplasma presence in micropropatated shoots [ 30 ].…”
