An Experimental Test of the Host-Plant Range of Nonrecombinant Strains of North American Xylella fastidiosa subsp. multiplex

Nonrecombinant strains of Xylella fastidiosa subsp. multiplex (those lacking evidence of significant intersubspecific homologous recombination) infect the xylem of a wide range of native and nonnat...

Budding method affects transmission of Xylella fastidiosa in plum

Detection of Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al. by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay indicated that plums (Prunus hybrids) had higher absorbance values than peaches [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch]. The s...

Detection of Xylella fastidiosa from resistant and susceptible grapevine by tissue sectioning and membrane entrapment immunofluorescence

Immunofluorescence detection was performed by tissue sectioning and membrane entrapment of Xylella fastidiosa from the inoculated hybrid selection F8909-08 (Vitis rupestris A. de Serres x V. arizon...

Differential Susceptibility of Prunus Germplasm (Subgenus Amygdalus) to a California Isolate of Xylella fastidiosa

Seedling peach (Prunus persica Batsch) and clonal peach-almond hybrids are popular rootstock choices for commercial almond growers in California. In this study, clonal replicates of peach and almon...

DISTRIBUTION OF XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA WITHIN ROOTS OF PEACH

The distribution of Xylella fastidiosa, the bacterium that causes phony peach disease, was studied in roots of 10 Flordaking peach scions grafted on Nemaguard rootstock. X. fastidiosa was detected ...

EVALUATION OF A RAPID ELISA TEST KIT FOR DETECTION OF XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA IN LANDSCAPE TREES

Leaf scorch symptoms on landscape trees infected with Xylella fastidiosa are often confused with similar symptoms caused by stress factors. Because the isolation of X. fastidiosa from trees is diff...

Imidacloprid insecticide slows development of phony peach and plum leaf scald

Observations in controlled field experiments over 5 years indicated that imidacloprid, applied as a soil drench around the trunks of peach (Prunus persica), nectarine (P. persica var. nectarine) an...

ISOLATION, CULTIVATION, AND PATHOGENICITY OF XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA, THE CAUSAL BACTERIUM OF PEAR LEAF SCORCH DISEASE IN TAIWAN

Leaf scorch symptoms occurred in 12-20.6% of the pear trees (Pyrus pyrifolia) in the low-altitude areas of central Taiwan in 1990. Symptoms appeared on leaves in early July and stayed until the lea...

Multilocus sequence typing of Xylella fastidiosa isolated from olive affected by "olive quick decline syndrome" in Italy

The recent finding of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) in olive trees in southern Italy, the scanty molecular information on this bacterium and its association with the olive quick decline syndrome (OQDS) p...

ROOTSTOCK INFLUENCE ON OCCURRENCE OF HOMALODISCA-COAGULATA, PEACH XYLEM FLUID AMINO-ACIDS, AND CONCENTRATIONS OF XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA

The influence of three Prunus rootstocks-a domestic plum, a domestic peach, and a peach from Brazil-on the occurrence of the vector of phony peach disease, Homalodisca coagulata, was assessed in a ...

Susceptibility to Xylella fastidiosa in a First-generation Hybrid from a non-traditional Peach-Almond Cross

To facilitate development of Prunus L. rootstocks with desirable agronomic traits, domesticated peach (Prunus persica) and almond (P. dulcis) were crossed with wild almond relatives. This work repo...

The Bacterial Pathogen Xylella fastidiosa Affects the Leaf Ionome of Plant Hosts during Infection

Xylella fastidiosa is a plant pathogenic bacterium that lives inside the host xylem vessels, where it forms biofilm believed to be responsible for disrupting the passage of water and nutrients. Her...
