European stone fruit yellows is a long standing problem in apricot and peach orchards in Moravia and East Bohemia, Czech Republic (CR), and in stone fruits in several regions of Hungary and Poland. The study on ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’ infected apple trees revealed the presence of strains in all the three countries. Epidemic occurrence of “stolbur” was recorded in tomato, pepper and celery in South Moravia: vmp1 gene analyses revealed that four genetic variants are infecting annual crops and wild plants in CR. Most of Hungarian “stolbur” strains clustered in tuf-type b STAMP II. Transmission of “stolbur” via potato tubers and association of this phytoplasma with maize redness disease and its vector Reptalus panzeri were investigated in Hungary. New plant hosts and potential insect vectors of phytoplasmas belonging to different 16S ribosomal groups and subgroups were also identified in Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland.
