Reclassification of aster yellows group phytoplasmas in Korea
2012
Aster yellows group phytoplasmas were reclassified by analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence, their phylogeny and the presence of interoperon heterogeneity. Nine phytoplasmas were classified into subgroups 16SrI-B and 16SrI-D using the 16S rRNA gene sequence. Then, based on the presence of interoperon heterogeneity, subgroup 16SrI-B phytoplasmas were differentiated into three subunits as 16SrI-B(a): mulberry dwarf, sumac witches’ broom and porcelain vine witches’ broom; 16SrI-B(b): angustata ash witches’ broom and Japanese spurge yellows; and 16SrI-B(c): onion yellow dwarf, water dropwort witches’ broom and hare’s ear yellow dwarf phytoplasma.
