- Cryotherapy of shoot tips: a technique for pathogen eradication to produce healthy planting materials and prepare healthy plant genetic resources for cryopreservation (2009, background): “Phytoplasmas colonise only the phloem tissues, mainly sieve elements, and are transmitted by phloem-feeding leafhoppers (Cicadellidae), planthoppers (Fulgoridae) and psyllids (Psyllidae) (Lee et al., 2000).”
- Cryopreservation of Phytodiversity: A Critical Appraisal of Theory & Practice (2008, background): “Phytoplasma is the term now applied to mycoplasma-like organisms, initially designated by the taxonomic group Candidatus phytoplasm species, found in plants ( Namba, 2002 ; Lee et al.”
- Universal and group‐specific real‐time PCR diagnosis of flavescence dorée (16Sr‐V), bois noir (16Sr‐XII) and apple proliferation (16Sr‐X) phytoplasmas from field‐collected plant hosts and insect vectors (2005, methodology): “It is caused by a phytoplasma related to pear decline (PD), European stone fruit yellows (ESFY) and peach yellows leafroll phytoplasmas (Lee et al., 2000) but for which a separate species has recently been proposed (Ca. Phytoplasma mali, 16Sr-X; Seemüller & Schneider, 2004).”
- Biology and ecology of the Flavescence dorée vector Scaphoideus titanus: a review (2014, neutral): “Phytoplasmas are wall-less bacterial pathogens, persistently transmitted in a propagative manner, that are responsible for hundreds of plant diseases worldwide (Lee et al. 2000; Bertaccini and Duduk 2009; Strauss 2009).”
- Opportunities for Napier Grass ( Pennisetum purpureum ) Improvement Using Molecular Genetics (2017, neutral): “The primary mode of transmission of the disease is by vegetative propagation of infected planting material or by phloem-feeding insects belonging to the families Cicadellidae (leafhoppers), Delphacidae (planthoppers) and some psyllids (Psylloidea) [124,125].”
- 'Candidatus Phytoplasma', a taxon for the wall-less, non-helical prokaryotes that colonize plant phloem and insects. (2004, methodology): “When observed by transmission electron microscopy, they appear as rounded to filamentous, pleomorphic bodies with a mean diameter of 200–800 nm [reviewed by Kirkpatrick (1992) and Lee et al. (2000)].”
- Forest pathogens with higher damage potential due to climate change in Europe (2008, background): “…such as some palms, sandal (Santa/urn album L.), paulownia (Paulonia tomentosa (Sprengel) Steud), and American ashes (Fraxinus americana L. and Fraxinus pennsylvanica Marshall) and elm (Ulmus americana L.), they cause death (Lanier et al. 1988; Sinclair and Griffiths 1994; Lee et al. 2000).”
- Computer-simulated RFLP analysis of 16S rRNA genes: identification of ten new phytoplasma groups. (2007, methodology): “…length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-amplified 16S rRNA, Lee and colleagues constructed the first comprehensive phytoplasma classification scheme (Lee et al. , 1993b, 1998, 2000), providing a reliable means for the differentiation of a broad array of phyto-plasmas.”
- Real‐time PCR detection systems for Flavescence dorée and Bois noir phytoplasmas in grapevine: comparison with conventional PCR detection and application in diagnostics (2007, background): “Phytoplasmas are found in the phloem sieve tubes of plants (Lee et al ., 2000; Garnier et al ., 2001; Christensen et al ., 2005) and in phloem-sucking homopterous insects (Webb et al ., 1999; Christensen et al ., 2005).”
- Lethal yellowing‐type diseases of palms associated with phytoplasmas newly identified in Florida, USA (2008, background): “On this basis, we propose that these strains be classified as members of a new subgroup, 16SrIV-F, sensu Lee et al. (1993, 1998, 2000).”
