摘要

Our country is one of the nations settled in temperate region which enables it high agricultural potential. Agriculture is done as viticulture, field's crops, variable fruits, vegetables and ornamental crops production and constitutes great impact on Turkish economy. Plant diseases are one of the important factors which limit the production of all those crops. Recently phytoplasma diseases are the most important agents that limit the agricultural production in Turkey and in the world. Transmission by vegetative plant material and also by vectors causes epidemics in very short period. Stolbur on potato and tomato, Apple proliferation and Pear decline on pomes fruits, European stone fruit yellows on stone fruits, Flavescense doree, Bois Noir on vineyards are the most important phytoplasma infections in our country. AP, PD and ESFY are transmitted by the vector species belonging to Hemiptera order, Psyllidae family whereas FD and BN are transmitted by the species of Cicadellidae, Cixiidae families.
