16S-23S RDNA: Polymorphisms and their use for detection and identification of Xylella fastidiosa strains

Strains of Xylella fastidiosa from several hosts (coffee, citrus, grape, almond, oleander, peach, plum, etc.) were characterized by analyzing the content of the nucleotide sequences of 16S- 23S rDN...

A mathematical model for Xylella fastidiosa epidemics in the Mediterranean regions. Promoting good agronomic practices for their effective control

Mathematical models represent essential tools allowing a quantitative analysis of an epidemic system with the consequent identification of possible strategies to control a disease outbreak or eve...

Assessment of the genetic diversity among strains of Xanthomonas cynarae by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA analysis and development of specific characterized amplified regions for the rapid identification of X-cynarae

The randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method was used to investigate the genetic diversity in Xanthomonas cynarae, which causes bacterial bract spot disease of artichoke. This RAPD analysis...

A survey of potential insect vectors of the plant pathogenic bacterium Xylella fastidiosa in three regions of Spain

The emergence of a rapid-spreading olive disease associated with Xylella fastidiosa in southern Italy represents a high risk to susceptible crops in other countries of the Mediterranean basin, if i...

A Survey of Sharpshooters (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) in Virginia Vineyards, a Region of Expanding Concern for Pierce's Disease

A survey was conducted during the 2006 and 2007 growing seasons to record the presence of sharpshooters (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) vectors of Pierce's disease in Vitis vinifera L. growing regions of...

A zinc, copper and citric acid biocomplex shows promise for control of Xylella fastidiosa subsp pauca in olive trees in Apulia region (southern Italy)

The bacterium Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca is associated with the “olive quick decline syndrome” in the Apulia region of southern Italy. To investigate control of this phytopathogen, a compound ...

Descriptions of eight new Acrogonia species from the Amazon region, including peculiar features of the female genitalia (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Cicadellinae: Proconiini)

Eight new species of the agriculturally important sharpshooter genus Acrogonia Stal, 1869 are described and illustrated from Brazil (one of them also recorded from Peru): A. amazonensis sp. nov. (s...
