본 연구는 오동나무천구소병 바이러스의 매개충을 구명하기 위하여 착수했으며, 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 오동나무천구소병의 이병수에 모여드는 흡수성곤충 중에서 가장 발생이 많았던 곤충은 담배장님노린제며 난, 약충, 성충이 8월 중순부터 10월 하순까지 발생하였다. 2) 담배장님노린재가 오동나무천구소병 바이러스의 매개곤충임이 구명되었다. 3) 담배장님노린재에 의하여 오동나무천구소병 바이러스를 접종한 결과 오동나무유식물에서는 접종 후 20일만에 발병을 보았고 접종 40일만에 오통나무천구소병 특유의 병징이 발현되었다. 4) 접종실험을 통해서 확인된 오동나무천구소병 바이러스의 기주식물은 오동나무 이외에 금잔화 및 나팔꽃이며, 일년감$\cdot$당근$\cdot$과꽃$\cdot$ 백일흥$\cdot$코스므스$\cdot$대두$\cdot$질경이 등에서는 충접종 후 2개월까지도 뚜렷한 발병을 확인할 수 없었다. 5) 금잔화와 나팔꽃은 발병까지의 잠복기간이 짧고 병징발현이 뚜렷한 점으로 미뤄 오동나무천구소병 바이러스의 유망한 검정식물로 생각된다.

In 2003 typical phytoplasma symptoms of witches' broom and flower malformation were observed on statice (Limonium sinuatum) plants grown at commercial greenhouses in Busan, South Korea. The DNA extracted from the infected leaves was amplified using universal primer pair of Pl/P6 derived from conserved 16S rRNA gene of Mollicutes giving the expected Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product of 1.5 kb. In the nested PCR assays, the expected DNA fragment of 1.1 kb was amplified with the specific primer pair 16Fl/Rl that was designed on the basis of aster yellows (AY) phytoplasma 16S rDNA sequences. The 1.1 kb PCR products were cloned and nucleotide sequences were determined. The sequences were identical to that of Onion yellows OY phytoplasma (GenBank accession no. D12569) isolated from Onion in Japan. Electron microscopy of thin sections of leaf veins showed phytoplasma bodies in the phloem. Statice witches' broom symptom occurred on statice in commercial greenhouses in Korea was confirmed as infection of AY phytoplasma by transmission electron microscopy observation, and by determination of 16S rRNA gene sequences of phytoplasma.

Molecular identification and genetic relationships between a phytoplasma associated with chestnut little leaf (CLL) and phytoplasma isolates of other trees in Korea were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). These 16S rDNA sequences amplified from the various phytoplasmas were used in DNA heteroduplex mobility assays (HMA). In DNA HMA combined with PCR, the mobility shift was observed for a heteroduoplex formed in combined with CLL and jujube witches broom, but not for those formed in combined with CLL and each of sumac witches broom, paulownia witches broom, and mulberry dwarf. HMA combined with PCR has been shown to be a very useful method for detection and differentiation of phytoplasmas.

oxytetracycline HCI의 대추나무 비짜루병 방제효과를 구명할 목적으로 병든 대추나무(15-20년생, 흉고직경 20cm 내외)에 oxytetracycline HCI의 1,000 p.p.m. 수용액을 1회에 500ml씩 시기별로 각각 1회(4월), 2회(4월, 7월), 30(4월, 6월, 8월) 그리고 대추 수확후 1회구(10월)로 나누어 수간에 주입하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 수간주입당년에 있어서는 시기별 주입회수에 관계없이 1회 이상의 수간주입으로 비짜루병징이 완전히 억제되고, 정상엽이 자라나면서 개화결실하였다. 2. 2회이상 주입한 나무와 10월에 1회주입한 나무에서는 이듬해 가을까지도 병징억제효과가 지속되었으나 4월에 1회 주입한 나무에서는 이듬해에 부분적으로 경미한 병징이 나타나기 시작했다. 3. oxytetracycline HCI에 의한 병징억제효과는 수간주입부위의 윗쪽에서만 나타났으며, 그 이하부위와 약액이 주입되지 않은 측지에서는 병징이 억제되지 않았다. 4. oxytetracycline HCI의 5.000 p.p.m. 수용액을 주당 30ml씩 주입하였을 때는 전혀 병징이 억제되지 않았다.

Witches' broom of lime is a disease caused by Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifolia, which represents the most significant global threat to the production of lime trees (Citrus aurantifolia). Conventional disease management strategies have shown little success, and new approaches based on genetic engineering need to be considered. The expression of recombinant antibodies and fragments thereof in plant cells is a powerful approach that can be used to suppress plant pathogens. We have developed a single-chain variable fragment antibody (scFvIMP6) against the immunodominant membrane protein (IMP) of witches' broom phytoplasma and expressed it in different plant cell compartments. We isolated scFvIMP6 from a naïve scFv phage display library and expressed it in bacteria to demonstrate its binding activity against both recombinant IMP and intact phytoplasma cells. The expression of scFvIMP6 in plants was evaluated by transferring the scFvIMP6 cDNA to plant expression vectors featuring constitutive or phloem specific promoters in cassettes with or without secretion signals, therefore causing the protein to accumulate either in the cytosol or apoplast. All constructs were transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana by agroinfiltration, and antibodies of the anticipated size were detected by immunoblotting. Plant-derived scFvIMP6 was purified by affinity chromatography, and specific binding to recombinant IMP was demonstrated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Our results indicate that scFvIMP6 binds with high activity and can be used for the detection of Ca. Phytoplasma aurantifolia and is also a suitable candidate for stable expression in lime trees to suppress witches' broom of lime.

In order to diagnose and differentiate jujube witches' broom (JWB) phytoplasma rapidly, oligonucleotide primer pair, 16Sr(V) F/R, for polymerase chain reactions (PCRs) was designed on the basis of 165 rRNA sequences of JWB phytoplasma. The PCR employing phytoplasma universal primer pair P1/P7 consistently amplified DNA in all tested phytoplasma isolates. But no phytoplasma DNA was detected in healthy jujube seedlings. The nested PCR, the primer pair 16S(V) F/R, about 460 bp fragment, amplified DNA in all tested JWB and related phytoplasmas including LiWB phytoplasma of the 165 rRNA group V, but no DNA amplification was detected from other phytoplasma strains such as group 16SrI (Aster yellows) and group 16SrⅩII (Stolbur group) phytoplasmas in which mulberry dwarf phytoplasma and chrysanthemum witches broom phytoplasma are belonged to, respectively The same results were obtained from both Korean- and Chinese-isolates of JWB. Nested-PCR using phytoplasma universal primer pair P1/P7 and 16S rRNA group V specific primer pair 16S(V) F/R could detect group V phytoplasma rapidly and easily, in particular JWB phytoplasma.

The relative density of phytoplasmas in witches'broom (WB)-infected jujube trees was investigated using compatitive polymerase chain reaction (PCR). During dormant and defoliating seasons, the densities of phytoplasmas were about the same in roots and twigs. In early growing season, the density showed the highest rates in roots, then in twigs and in petioles. however, the density was highest in petioles and the lowest in roots during actively growing season. Throughout the year, root samples did not show any serious fluctuation compared with that of t2wigs and petioles. Density was lowest during actively growing season in root samples. In contrast, petiole sample densities varied to a great extent depending on the season, very high during actively growing season, but very low during the early growing season, In twig samples, the densities were very high and almost the same in both defoliating and dormant seasons. Among the parts of the trees, phytoplsma density was the most stable in root samples throughout the year. The highest densities of phytoplasmas were about the same in all tree parts. These results suggest that the phytoplasmas may overwinter not only in roots but also in twigs, and that multiplication rate of phytoplsma becomes very high right after the early growing season.

Jujube trees infected with phytoplasma exhibit symptoms of typical witches' broom, such as yellowing, abnormally small leaves, short internodes and proliferation of shoots. A 1.2 kb fragment of the 16S rDNA from jujube phytoplasma was generated by R16F2n/R16R2 primer pair from earlier amplified P1/P7 PCR products of cloned jujube witches' broom phytoplasmas. Enzymatic restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequence analysis of 16S rDNA revealed that the jujube tree was infected with 16S rDNA I and V groups of phytoplasmas. Extensive comparative analyses of restriction enzyme profiles from Alu I, Hha I, Msp I, and Rsa I clearly classified the two into different phytoplasma groups. The phylogenie analyses based on 16S rDNA showed that the similarity of the two different clones was 87.5%. This is the first report of a mixed phytoplasmal infection in a single jujube tree.
