Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation PAGE assigned 23 isolates to two subgroups similar to A. axanthum.
- Observation A single isolate formed a unique category.
- Observation Serological relationships broadly agreed with PAGE classification.
- Observation Injected isolates showed no evidence of transmission to plant hosts through tested insects.
- Observation Some isolates multiplied in E. variegatus after injection.
- Observation Those isolates were not acquired or transmitted during membrane feeding.
- Observation A. axanthum antiserum did not react with diseased or healthy palm tissue.
- Observation Additional acholeplasmas were recovered from palms with bud rot.
- Association The isolates were not specifically associated with lethal yellowing.
- Observation The authors suggest these acholeplasmas are epiphytes or saprophytes on coconut palms.
