Hydraulic disruption and passive migration by a bacterial pathogen in oak tree xylem
Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is a xylem-limited bacterial pathogen that causes leaf scorch symptoms in numerous plant species in urban, agricultural, and natural ecosystems worldwide. The exact mechanis...
Interactive effects of water stress and xylem-limited bacterial infection on the water relations of a host vine
Xylella fastidiosa, a xylem-limited bacterial pathogen that causes bacterial leaf scorch in its hosts, has a diverse and extensive host range among plant species worldwide. Previous work has shown ...
The role of tyloses in crown hydraulic failure of mature walnut trees afflicted by apoplexy disorder
In the Central Valley of California, mature walnut trees afflicted with apoplexy disorder exhibit rapid and complete crown defoliation within a few weeks of symptom initiation. Symptoms are typical...
Xylem cavitation susceptibility and refilling mechanisms in olive trees infected by Xylella fastidiosa
In olive trees, Xylella fastidiosa colonizes xylem vessels and compromises water transport causing the olive quick decline syndrome (OQDS). The loss of hydraulic conductivity could be attributed to...
