Article Synopsis
- In late 2023, Oklahoma State University received over 300 chrysanthemum samples from a commercial greenhouse for testing due to symptoms resembling aster yellows disease.
- Researchers processed 238 cultivars using a qPCR assay to detect phytoplasma, confirming 67 samples positive for the disease.
- Subsequent sequencing and BLAST analysis further validated the presence of aster yellows phytoplasma in the affected chrysanthemum samples.
