Abstract
ABSTRACT Marginal chlorosis is a new disease of strawberry in which the uncultured phloem-restricted proteobacterium “ Candidatus Phlomobacter fragariae” is involved. In order to identify the insect(s) vector(s) of this bacterium, homopteran insects have been captured. Because a PCR test based on the 16S rRNA gene (rDNA) applied to these insects was unable to discriminate between “P. fragariae” and other insect-associated proteobacteria, isolation o
