BACTERIAL DISEASES THAT MAY OR DO EMERGE, WITH (POSSIBLE) ECONOMIC DAMAGE FOR EUROPE AND THE MEDITERRANEAN BASIN: NOTES ON EPIDEMIOLOGY, RISKS, PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT ON FIRST OCCURRENCE
Bacterial diseases are difficult to control (both chemically and biologically), and are restrained primarily by preventive measures. Most important risk factors for the introduction or spread of ba...
Comparative genomic characterization of citrus-associated Xylella fastidiosa strains
The xylem-inhabiting bacterium Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is the causal agent of Pierce's disease (PD) in vineyards and citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) in orange trees. Both of these economically-de...
Detecting Genetic Introgression: High Levels of Intersubspecific Recombination Found in Xylella fastidiosa in Brazil
Documenting the role of novel mutation versus homologous recombination in bacterial evolution, and especially in the invasion of new hosts, is central to understanding the long-term dynamics of pat...
Etiology of three recent diseases of citrus in Sao Paulo State: Sudden death, variegated chlorosis and huanglongbing
The state of Sao Paulo (SSP) is the. rst sweet orange growing region in the world. Yet, the SSP citrus industry has been, and still is, under constant attack from various diseases. In the 1940s, tr...
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...
GENETIC VARIATION OF XYLELLA FASTIDIOSA ASSOCIATED WITH GRAPEVINES IN TWO MAJOR VITICULTURAL REGIONS IN THE UNITED STATES: CALIFORNIA AND TEXAS
Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) causes diseases in many agricultural, horticultural, and landscape crops, including Pierce's disease (PD) of grapevines. PD has been a serious problem in scattered table, wi...
Isolation and pathogenicity of Xylella fastidiosa from grapevine and almond in Iran
Symptoms similar to those of Pierce's disease (PD) of grapevine and leaf scorch of almond were observed in vineyards and almond orchards in several provinces of Iran. Grafting of scions from sympto...
Lessons from One Fastidious Bacterium to Another: What Can We Learn about Liberibacter Species from Xylella fastidiosa
Huanglongbing is causing economic devastation to the citrus industry in Florida, and threatens the industry everywhere the bacterial pathogens in the Candidatus Liberibacter genus and their insect ...
PAMPs, PRRs, effectors and R-genes associated with citrus-pathogen interactions
Recent application of molecular-based technologies has considerably advanced our understanding of complex processes in plant-pathogen interactions and their key components such as PAMPs, PRRs, effe...
Relationship between sweet orange yield and intensity of Citrus Variegated Chlorosis
Citrus Variegated Chlorosis (CVC) is currently present in approximately 40% of citrus plants in Brazil and causes an annual loss of around 120 million US dollars to the Brazilian citrus industry. D...
SPATIAL ANALYSIS OF PLUM LEAF SCALD IN SAO PAULO STATE, BRAZIL
This study characterizes the spatial dynamics of Plum Leaf Scald on three commercial orchards located in Sao Paulo State, Brazil. All trees from each orchard were evaluated during four consecutive ...
SURVEY OF XYLELLA FASTIDIOSA AND CITRUS VARIEGATED CHLOROSIS IN SAO PAULO STATE, BRAZIL
Contrary to the well-documented incidence and severity of Citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) throughout the sweet orange groves of Sao Paulo state (Brazil), the incidence and distribution of its cau...
