'Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifolia'(PHYPAF)
Distribution details in Oman
First recorded in: 1970s
From CABI Disease map 792 (1999): Present, no details
EPPO Reporting Service (2003/041) : now widespread.
From Al-Gahithi et al. (2017): a survey was carried out from 2010 to 2016 in Citrus aurantifolia in 15 districts. The pathogen was detected in all surveyed districts, but in 4 districts, no typical symptoms could be observed .
