The amplified fragments were cloned, sequenced and compared with other phytoplasma strains. The results showed that the 16S rDNA and ribosomal protein gene of periwinkle yellows phytoplasma consist of 1239bp and 1244bp, respectively. They all shared high homology (higher than 97.5%) with phytoplasma strains of 16S rI group. Thus, the result made it clear that the phytoplasma strain of periwinkle yellows (PY) is one of the members of phytoplasma 16SrI group.展开更多
