Preface
Phytoplasma-associated diseases are a major limiting factor to the quality and productivity of many ornamental, horticultural, and other economically important agriculture crops worldwide. Annual losses due to phytoplasma diseases vary in many crops, but under pathogen-favorable conditions, they always lead to disastrous consequences to farming communities. There is no effective cure for phytoplasma diseases; the management options emphasize pathogen exclusion, to minimize their spread by insect vectors and propagation materials, and development of host plant resistance. The scientific literature co
