Abstract
Complete sequences for two plasmids associated with two strains of “ Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris” have been obtained. The plasmid named pPARG1 was found in Rehmannia glutinosa L. associated with phytoplasma classified in the 16Sr I-C subgroup. Plasmid pPABN1 was from phytoplasma associated with infected winter oilseed rape and classified in the 16Sr I-B subgroup. The plasmids pPARG1 (4371 nt) and pPABN1 (3529 nt) have high A + T content of about 75%, similar to that of phytoplasma genomes. Six and five open reading frames longer than 100 amino acids and organized on the same strand were recognized on pPARG1 and pPABN1, respectively. A segment about 1.6 kbp long sharing high sequence identity with the Onion yellows phytoplasma genome was found in pPABN1.
