Abstract
The Côte d’Ivoire Lethal Yellowing (CILY) disease is associated with a Lethal Decline (LD) phytoplasma, plant pathogenic bacteria transmitted by insect vectors of the Hemiptera order. This detailed paper is part of a larger study “Fighting lethal yellowing disease for coconut farmers (CIFSRF Phase 2)” and was carried out with surveys in eight coconut-growing villages of Grand-Lahou to assess the differential detection of the CILY phytoplasma in the stem, inflorescences and leaves of affected palms, as well as to render a phylogenetic analysis. Disease stages one, two and three were present throughout all the coconut plantations of the surveyed villages.
