| Abstract: | Background
"Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifolia", is the causative agent of witches' broom disease in Mexican lime trees (Citrus aurantifolia L.), and is responsible for major losses of Mexican lime trees in Southern Iran and Oman. The pathogen is strictly biotrophic,
and thus is completely dependent on living host cells for its survival. The molecular basis of compatibility and disease development
in this system is poorly understood. Therefore, we have applied a cDNA- amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) approach
to analyze gene expression in Mexican lime trees infected by " Ca. Phytoplasma aurantifolia". |
