In southwestern Germany, mycoplasmas were detected in peach ( Prunus persica ), apricot ( P. armeniaca ), almond ( P. amygdalus ), Japanese plum ( P. salicina ) and flowering cherry ( P. serrulata ). The infected trees showed yellowing and leaf roll symptoms as well as reduced terminal growth, die‐back, and decline.
