Anatomy and histology of reproductive organs of female Homalodisca coagulata (Hemiptera : Cicadellidae : Proconiini), with special emphasis on categorization of vitellogenic oocytes
The anatomy and histology of female Homalodisca coagulata (Say) (Hemiptera: Ci-cadellida: Proconiini) reproductive organs is described using light microscopy. The reproductive organs of H. coagulat...
Biology and biometry of sharpshooter Homalodisca coagulata (Homoptera : Cicadellidae) reared on cowpea
Stage-specific survival, growth, developmental biology, and biometry of the sharpshooter Homalodisca coagulata (Say) were studied in the laboratory under controlled conditions of 27 ± 1°...
Biology and Prevalence in Northern Italy of Verrallia aucta (Diptera, Pipunculidae), a Parasitoid of Philaenus spumarius (Hemiptera, Aphrophoridae), the Main Vector of Xylella fastidiosa in Europe
The meadow spittlebug, Philaenus spumarius (L.) (Hemiptera Aphrophoridae), the main vector of Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al. in Europe, has few known natural enemies. The endoparasitoid Verralli...
Biology of Zagella delicata (Hymenoptera : Trichogrammatidae), an egg parasitoid of the sharpshooter Tapajosa rubromarginata (Hemiptera : Clypeorrhyncha : Clcadellidae) in Argentina
Research on biological control of glassy-winged sharpshooter (GWSS) Homalodisca coagulata (Say) started in the 1990s. This sharpshooter, vector of Pierce's disease bacteria Xylella fastidiosa Wells...
Combined use of a new SNP-based assay and multilocus SSR markers to assess genetic diversity of Xylella fastidiosa subsp pauca infecting citrus and coffee plants
Two haplotypes of Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca (Xfp) that correlated with their host of origin were identified in a collection of 90 isolates infecting citrus and coffee plants in Brazil, based ...
Complete Circularized Genome Data of Two Spanish strains of Xylella fastidiosa (IVIA5235 and IVIA5901) Using Hybrid Assembly Approaches.
Xylella fastidiosa is an economically important plant pathogenic bacterium of global importance associated, since 2013, with a devastating epidemic in olive trees in Italy. Since then, several o...
Development of A Nested-MultiLocus Sequence Typing Approach for A Highly Sensitive and Specific Identification of Xylella fastidiosa Subspecies Directly from Plant Samples
Identification of sequence types (ST) of Xylella fastidiosa based on direct MultiLocus Sequence Typing (MLST) of plant DNA samples is partly efficient. In order to improve the sensitivity of X. f...
EFFECT OF CONTACT AND SYSTEMIC INSECTICIDES ON THE SHARPSHOOTER BUCEPHALOGONIA XANTHOPHIS (HEMIPTERA: CICADELLIDAE), A VECTOR OF XYLELLA FASTIDIOSA IN CITRUS
The knockdown and toxic effects of insecticides of different chemical groups and modes of action registered for citrus in Brazil were investigated for effective control of Bucephalogonia xanthophis...
First report of a Proconiine sharpshooter, Anacuerna centrolinea (Hemiptera : Cicadellidae), in chile, with notes on its biology, host plants, and egg parasitoids
The first representative of the leafhopper tribe Proconiini (subfamily Cicadellinae), Anacuerna centrolinea (Melichar) is reported herein from the Tarapaca region in northern Chile. This species wa...
First report of olive leaf scorch in Brazil, associated with Xylella fastidiosa subsp pauca
Olea europaea (L.) trees displaying leaf scorching symptoms, identical to those recently reported for olive trees colonized by Xylella fastidiosa in Southern Italy and also in Argentina, were obser...
Genetic structure and biology of Xylella fastidiosa strains causing disease in citrus and coffee in Brazil
Xylella fastidiosa is a vector-borne, plant-pathogenic bacterium that causes disease in citrus (citrus variegated chlorosis [CVC]) and coffee (coffee leaf scorch [CLS]) plants in Brazil. CVC and CL...
Host Plant Effects on Development and Reproduction of the Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter, Homalodisca vitripennis (Homoptera: Cicadellidae)
Development, survivorship, longevity, reproduction, and life table parameters of the glassy-winged sharpshooter, Homalodisca vitripennis (Germar), were examined in the laboratory using three host p...
