Predatory Mites in Citrus Under Protective Screen

EDIS, 2021
Managing the Asian citrus psyllid (ACP), a vector of huanglongbing (HLB), is critical for reducing disease incidence and improving tree health. Growing citrus under screened structures, referred to as citrus under protective screen (CUPS), protects ...

Laboratory Protocols for Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus Transmission Biology and Management Research

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), the causal agent of Huanglongbing, is transmitted by the Asian citrus psyllid (Diaphorina citri) in a persistent, propagative manner. Reproducible transmission studies require not only controlled inoculation assays but also standardized propagation of citrus host plants, maintenance of D.

‘Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus’ Effector SECP8 Subverts Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Citrus Immunity via a Two‐Pronged Impairment of CsTCP15 Dimerization

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2335-2349, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), a devastating disease caused by the unculturable bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas), poses a severe threat to global citrus production. CLas secretes effectors to suppress host immune responses and facilitate its colonisation. Previously, the CLas effector SECP8 (CLIBASIA_05330) has been identified

Practical Applications of Secondary/Extractive Electrospray Ionization (SESI): A Versatile Tool for Real‐Time Chemical Analysis

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 392-428, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT In the 1980s, researchers discovered the remarkable ability of electrospray plumes to effectively ionize gas‐phase molecules via secondary ionization. Around 20 years later—coinciding with the ambient mass spectrometry revolution—secondary electrospray ionization (SESI) and extractive electrospray ionization (EESI) coupled to mass spectrometry

Controlling ACP and Other Pests as Critical as Ever

EDIS, 2017
More than a decade has passed since 2006, when huanglongbing (HLB) or citrus greening disease was identified in Florida. By then, the disease had already spread widely and went unrecognized due to high psyllid populations and a disease incubation period

Climate Change Can Generate Enemy‐Free Space for Crop‐Feeding Herbivores

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
Magnitude and direction of change in parasitoid pressure for 14 agricultural pests subject to climate‐driven distributional shifts. Pests are organized per increasing parasitoid pressure under current climatic conditions (X axis). Bubble size is reflective of the (absolute) area affected by a given pest under a given scenario.

Risk Evaluation and Molecular Characterisation of AtNPR1 Transgenic Citrus Lines Tolerant to Citrus Greening Disease

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1223-1233, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Citrus greening disease, or Huanglongbing (HLB), has caused devastating losses to citrus production in Florida, with yields declining by over 90% since 2005. Despite extensive efforts, no sustainable solution has been widely effective. Here, transgenic ‘Hamlin’ sweet orange lines engineered to constitutively express the Arabidopsis NPR1 ...

High‐efficiency genome‐editing, transgene evaluation, and antimicrobial efficacy testing using Citrus medica L. hairy roots

The Plant Journal, Volume 125, Issue 4, February 2026.
Significance Statement Huanglongbing (HLB) or citrus greening disease threatens global citrus production, yet progress toward effective resistance strategies has been limited by the causal pathogen's unculturable nature and the difficulty of transforming citrus plants.

Predators for Asian citrus psyllid and citrus pest management

EDIS, 2022
The Asian citrus psyllid (ACP), Diaphorina citri, invaded Florida over two decades ago. The need to consistently suppress it became apparent soon after detection and particularly after discovering huanglongbing (HLB) disease, which it spreads. Managing HLB depends strongly on vector control to either reduce disease transmission of healthy trees or ...

Climate Change and Its Effects on Pest–Pathogen Complexes

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Climate change is intensifying the complexity and severity of pest–pathogen interactions in agriculture, threatening global food security. Rising temperatures, elevated CO2 levels, shifting precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events are reshaping vector ecology, accelerating insect development, altering pathogen virulence, and disrupting plant ...
