摘要
A polymerase chain reaction procedure was developed which enables specific amplification of a ribosomal sequence from the mycoplasmalike organism (MLO) associated with German grapevine yellows (Vergilbungskrankheit, VK) and stolbur-related diseases of solanaceous plants. Successful amplification from all samples prepared from various cultivars collected in different viticultural areas indicates that the causal agent is a relatively homogeneous organism. Amplification was also achieved with template DNA prepared from naturally infected weeds in vineyards such as Convolvolus arvensis and Solanum nigrum, and from the planthopper Hyalesthes obsoletus that was collected in the vineyards. Feeding of insects of this species on grapevine seedlings resulted in the development of typical yellows symptoms by the grapes. H. obsoletus could therefore be identified as a vector of Vergilbungskrankheit.
