Advances and innovative concepts to control Xylella fastidiosa colonization in citrus plants
Xylella fastidiosa is responsible for diseases that affect different crops worldwide. One of them is Citrus Variegated Chlorosis (CVC), which results from the xylem vessels occlusion by X. fastidio...
Analysis of Defense-Related Gene Expression in Citrus Hybrids Infected by Xylella fastidiosa
Resistance to Xylella fastidiosa was evaluated in 264 hybrids of crosses between Murcott tangor (Citrus reticulata x Citrus sinensis) and Pera sweet orange (C. sinensis) under field conditions. Uni...
Analysis of resistance to Xylella fastidiosa within a hybrid population of Pera sweet orange x Murcott tangor
Resistance to Xylella fastidiosa was evaluated within a population of 20 interspecific hybrids of Pera sweet orange and Murcott tangor under greenhouse conditions. Efficiency of inoculation, multip...
GENETIC DISTANCE MAY UNDERLIE VIRULENCE DIFFERENCES AMONG ISOLATES OF A BACTERIAL PLANT PATHOGEN
Certain pathogens evolve with their hosts in a stepwise arms race of virulence and resistance, mediated by one or a few genetic loci in their genomes. Other pathogens may retain the ability to colo...
SURVEY OF XYLELLA FASTIDIOSA AND CITRUS VARIEGATED CHLOROSIS IN SAO PAULO STATE, BRAZIL
Contrary to the well-documented incidence and severity of Citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) throughout the sweet orange groves of Sao Paulo state (Brazil), the incidence and distribution of its cau...
