Abstract:Phytoplasma as a phytopathogenic prokaryote with a wide host range is a pathogen that needs more attention in Indonesia. This pathogen is relatively difficult to detect and identify due to its complicated biological properties. This study involved detection of phytoplasmas by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique with P1/P7 primers from seven symptomatic plants, i.e. Bermuda grass white leaf, bamboo yellows, witches’ broom of peanut, soybean, yard long bean, and cactus, and sweet potato little leaf. The ph… Show more
