Abundance and Consumption Rate of Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) on Peaches and Plums
Homalodisca vitripennis (Germar), the glassy-winged sharpshooter, is a primary vector of phony peach and plum leaf scald diseases caused by Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al. A survey of H. vitripenni...
AU-CHERRY PLUM
‘AU-Cherry’ plum was developed in the Dept. of Horticulture and the Alabama Agricultural Experiment Station, Auburn Univ., and is adapted to areas receiving 700 h of chilling below 7C. The plum ori...
AU-ROSA PLUM
‘AU-Rosa’ was developed by the Dept. of Horticulture and the Alabama Agricultural Experiment Station,’ Auburn Univ., and is adapted to areas receiving 700 h of chilling below 7C. It was originated ...
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...
Citrus sinensis LEAF PETIOLE AND BLADE COLONIZATION BY Xylella fastidiosa: DETAILS OF XYLEM VESSEL OCCLUSION
Citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC), caused by Xylella fastidiosa, is an important disease of citrus in Brazil. X. fastidiosa is restricted to xylem vessels of plants and knowledge regarding xylem co...
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...
DEVELOPMENT OF A POLYMERASE CHAIN-REACTION PROTOCOL FOR DETECTION OF XYLELLA-FASTIDIOSA IN PLANT-TISSUE
A 7.4-kb EcoRI fragment of genomic DNA of Xylella fastidiosa strain PCE-RR (ATCC 35879) was used as a probe and was conserved in 18 strains of Xylella. The nucleotide sequence of a 1.0-kb internal ...
Evolution of the response of segregating populations of plums and the association with microsatellite markers of leaf scald
The evolution of leaf scald (Xylella fastidiosa) resistance was evaluated in individuals of seven plum segregating populations, consisted of seedling progenies originating from crosses involving ni...
Genomic Diversity and Recombination among Xylella fastidiosa Subspecies
Xylella fastidiosa is an economically important bacterial plant pathogen. With insights gained from 72 genomes, this study investigated differences among the three main subspecies, which have allop...
High-Quality Draft Genome Sequence Resources of Eight Xylella fastidiosa Strains Isolated from Citrus, Coffee, Plum, and Hibiscus in South America.
Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca, once confined to South America and infecting mainly citrus and coffee plants, has been found to be associated with other hosts and in other geographic regions. We...
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...
