Background matching behaviour and pathogen acquisition: plant site preference does not predict the bacterial acquisition efficiency of vectors
Many insect-borne pathogens are heterogeneously distributed within their hosts: therefore, a vector's within-plant distribution may be a predictor of its exposure to pathogens. In this study, we se...
Transmission Efficiency of Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca Sequence Types by Sharpshooter Vectors after In Vitro Acquisition
Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca is genetically diverse and has many vector species. However, there is limited information on vector specificity and efficiency for different sequence types (STs) wit...
