  1. aND, not detected. bH, DNA from uninfected plant. See Supplementary Fig. S4 for results. cNontarget DNA is a mixture of plasmids consisting of 106 copies each of all of the cpn60 UT fragments from the phytoplasma strains described in Dumonceaux et al.12. See Supplementary Fig. S4 for results on individual templates.
