During a survey performed in opium fields grown at Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture & Technology (ANDUAT), Kumarganj, Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, India in March 2021, symptoms of phyllody and stunting were observed on opium plants. The association of phytoplasmas was confirmed in all the symptomatic opium samples by using PCR of 16S rRNA and secA genes sequences. Association of a 'Candidatus Phytoplasma australasia' related strain was confirmed by 16S rRNA and secA gene sequence comparison analysis. Virtual RFLP analysis of ~ 1.25 kb product of 16S rRNA gene sequences using the iPhyClassifier tool further classified the opium phytoplasma isolate into the 16SrII-D subgroup. This is the first report on identification of a phytoplasma disease in opium in world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
