Analysis of vector behavior as a tool to predict Xylella fastidiosa patterns of spread
The most likely scenarios for Xylella fastidiosa introduction in Central Europe is through infected ornamental plants, with a successive spillover from gardens and parks to cultivated orchards. G...
A survey of potential insect vectors of the plant pathogenic bacterium Xylella fastidiosa in three regions of Spain
The emergence of a rapid-spreading olive disease associated with Xylella fastidiosa in southern Italy represents a high risk to susceptible crops in other countries of the Mediterranean basin, if i...
Distribution and Relative Abundance of Insect Vectors of Xylella fastidiosa in Olive Groves of the Iberian Peninsula
The phytosanitary emergency caused by the spread of Xylella fastidiosa in the Mediterranean has raised demands for a better understanding of the ecology of its presumed and candidate insect vectors...
EPG combined with micro-CT and video recording reveals new insights on the feeding behavior of Philaenus spumarius
Feeding behavior in relation to spittlebug transmission of Xylella fastidiosa
Here, we provide the first insights into the transmission dynamics of the bacterium Xylella fastidiosa by the meadow spittlebug Philaenus spumarius, gathered through DC EPG (electrical penetratio...
No evidence for cicadas' implication in Xylella fastidiosa epidemiology
Cicadas are prominent insects in the Mediterranean basin environments, including in olive orchards. The bacterium Xylella fastidiosa is a xylem-limited vector-borne plant pathogen that was introd...
Sulfoxaflor and Natural Pyrethrin with Piperonyl Butoxide Are Effective Alternatives to Neonicotinoids against Juveniles of Philaenus spumarius, the European Vector of Xylella fastidiosa
The threat imposed by the bacterial pathogen Xylella fastidiosa to crops of utter importance to European agriculture such as olive, stone fruit and grapevine calls for immediate research against th...
Survey data of xylem-sap feeding Auchenorrhyncha
The recent outbreaks of the xylem-limited bacterium Xylella fastidiosa in Europe require the improvement of prevention measures and of integrated management strategies for the diseases caused by th...
