ACQUISITION AND RETENTION OF XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA BY AN EFFICIENT VECTOR, GRAPHOCEPHALA-ATROPUNCTATA
The blue-green sharpshooter (BGSS), Graphocephala atropunctata (Signoret), is an efficient vector of Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al, the causal bacterium of Pierce's disease of grapevine. In experi...
Biological traits of Xylella fastidiosa strains from grapes and almonds
Xylella fastidiosa is a xylem-limited bacterium that causes various diseases, among them Pierce's disease of grapevine (PD) and almond leaf scorch (ALS). PD and ALS have long been considered to be ...
Cell-cell signaling controls Xylella fastidiosa interactions with both insects and plants
Xylella fastidiosa, which causes Pierce's disease of grapevine and other important plant diseases, is a xylem-limited bacterium that depends on insect vectors for transmission. Although many studie...
Genetic diversity of Pierce's disease strains and other pathotypes of Xylella fastidiosa
Strains of Xylella fastidiosa isolated from grape, almond, maple, and oleander were characterized by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus sequence-, repetitive extragenic palindromic ele...
HARVESTED GRAPE CLUSTERS AS INOCULUM FOR PIERCES DISEASE
Harvested fruit clusters from grapevines with Pierce's disease (PD) did not serve as sources from which an efficient insect vector (the blue-green sharpshooter, Graphocephala atropunctata) acquired...
MULTIPLICATION AND MOVEMENT OF XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA WITHIN GRAPEVINE AND 4 OTHER PLANTS
Xylella fastidiosa, a xylem-limited bacterium that causes Pierce's disease of grapevine and other plant diseases, has numerous symptomless hosts. The multiplication and spread of X. fastidiosa with...
Use of a green fluorescent strain for analysis of Xyella fastidiosa colonization of Vitis vinifera
Xylella fastidiosa causes Pierce's disease of grapevine as well as several other major agricultural diseases but is a benign endophyte in most host plants. X. fastidiosa colonizes the xylem vessels...
