The objective of this study was to investigate presence of phytoplasmas of 16SrXII-A group (Stolbur) in Zupa vineyard region (Serbia). Detection was based on RFLP analysis of 16s rDNA sequences using four restriction enzymes: Tru1 I, AluI, KpnI, and TaqI. We identified phytoplasmas of XIIA group on two of three investigated cultivars (Zupljanka and Frankovka, but not on Plovdina) in the Zupa vineyard regions (Gornje Rataje and Tules locality). This is the first report of Stolbur phytoplasma on cv. Zupljanka in Zupa region.
