Mycoplasma Like Organisms or Pleuro Pneumonia Like Organisms (PPLO)
Abstract: Mycoplasma like Organisms is the smallest of microorganisms causing plant disease. Viruses are acutely small (they can be seen only with the aid of an electron microscope), being composed of nothing more than a protein shell consisting a small amount of genetic material. Plant viruses commonly survive year-round in perennial weeds and trees or insect vectors, and are transmitted to other plants via feeding activities of certain insects, usually aphids, …
