Typical symptoms of phytoplasma infection were observed on 11 important crops in Oman that included alfalfa, sesame, chickpea, eggplant, tomato, spinach, rocket, carrot, squash, field pea, and faba bean. To identify the phytoplasmas in these crops, samples from infected and asymptomatic plants were collected, followed by amplifying and sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA, secA, tuf, imp, and SAP11 genes. We found that these sequences share >99% similarity with the peanut witches’ broom subgroup (16SrII-D). Whereas some sequence variation was found in the five genes among 11 phytoplasma isolates of different crops, all sequences grouped into one clade along with those of other phytoplasmas belonging to the 16SrII-D group. Thus, 16SrII-D phytoplasmas infect a diverse range of crops in Oman. Phytoplasmas in this group have not been reported to occur in carrot, spinach, rocket, and field pea previously. Within Oman, this is the first report of the presence of 16SrII-D phytoplasmas in tomato, spinach, rocket, carrot, squash, field pea, and faba bean. Sequences of the five genes enabled for better distinction of the 16SrII-D phytoplasmas that occur in Oman.

Morphological and molecular characterisation of 130 isolates of Botrytis cinerea, derived from raspberry fruit originating from six commercial fields in a raspberry growing region of Serbia (locations: Pozega, Prilike, Arilje, Ivanjica, Sabac and Valjevo) was performed. The results showed that all isolates formed white, uniform, aerial mycelia with entire margin on PDA medium. First morphological differences among the isolates appeared after six days of incubation. Three-week old isolates were grouped into eight distinct morphological types - four mycelial and four sclerotial. Mostly, they were of sclerotial type (81.5%) and the most frequently found was an S3 type, which formed large irregularly placed sclerotia. This type was dominant in five of six investigated locations and represented 45-65% of the isolates. The least frequent was the mycelial type M3 (0.7% of the isolates) characterized by mycelial masses. The presence of Boty and/or Flipper transposons was detected in isolates originating from all investigated locations. It was discovered that the B. cinerea population in raspberry in Serbia, besides the well-described genetically isolated sympatric species transposa (43.1%) and vacuma (10.8%), contains also another two, boty (44.6%) and flipper (1.5%) species with only one transposon (either Boty or Flipper) in the genome. In addition, it was revealed that all isolates from raspberry collected in Serbia, transposa, vacuma, boty or flipper, are sensitive or weakly resistant to fenhexamid and therefore belong to the B. cinerea genetical Group II.
