Abstract:Apple proliferation (AP) is an economically important disease in many apple-growing regions caused by ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’ which is spread by migrating psyllid vectors on a regional scale. As infected trees in orchards are the only inoculum source, the early eradication of those trees is one of the most efficient strategies to prevent further spread of AP. Remote sensing is a promising rapid and cost-effective tool to identify infected trees on a regional scale. AP-induced premature leaf reddening was… Show more
