Northeast Serbia

Infected plants and plants with expressed symptoms, were registered near town Pozarevac, D. Milanovac and Kladovo. Presence of vector Scaphoideus titanus was impossible to confirm, because field survey was carried out at the end of October. On the locality Kladovo, phytoplasma on bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis: Convolvulaceae) was frequently registered next to the grapevine plants with phytoplasmatic symptoms, which suggests possible presence of Stolbur phytoplasma on these vines.
