Abstract

A DNA probe was used to detect aster yellows mycoplasmalike organism acquisition by the corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis (DeLong & Wolcott), an insect that does not transmit aster yellows mycoplasmalike organism, as well as by Macrosteles fascifrons (Stœl), a vector insect. Results show the effectiveness of the probe for pathogen detection in both the non-vector and the vector insect.
