BACKGROUND Piercing-sucking insects secrete diverse repertoires of effectors into their hosts to weaken host defenses and promote infestation. The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, is the most destructive insect pest in citrus orchards ...

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 ...

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

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

Sampling for Asian citrus psyllid (ACP) in Florida citrus groves
Three techniques are currently in use to sample adult Asian citrus psyllids (ACP). This 7-page illustrated fact sheet by H. A. Arevalo, J. A. Qureshi, and P. A. Stansly discusses the strengths and weaknesses of each and makes recommendations for routine monitoring of ACP for management purposes. Includes references.

The Asian Citrus Psyllid Genome (Diaphorina citri, Hemiptera) [PDF]
Author(s): Hunter, Wayne B.; Reese, Justin; International Psyllid Genome Consortium, The | Abstract: The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri (Hemiptera), is an important pest of citrus because it vectors bacteria responsible for huanglongbing, which is one of the most serious diseases of citrus worldwide. The first genome draft of D.

Abstract Pesticides boost agricultural yields but bring environmental and climate concerns, driving a cycle of increased use. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) aims to lower pesticide reliance, yet it may impact ecosystems. This study examines consumer willingness to pay (WTP) for IPM‐labeled fruits and the role of climate awareness.

One landscape does not fit all: Diverse arthropod responses to land use
Abstract Early studies and theory suggested that complex landscapes harboring remnants of natural land should support natural enemy populations and reduce pest buildup in adjacent crops, whereas landscapes interspersed with urban land often provide alternate host plants of crop pests, facilitating pest spillover and amplifying pest pressure.

Exogenous application of the plant signalers methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid induces changes in volatile emissions from citrus foliage and influences the aggregation behavior of Asian citrus psyllid (Diaphorina citri), vector of Huanglongbing. [PDF]
Huanglongbing, also known as citrus greening, is a destructive disease that threatens citrus production worldwide. It is putatively caused by the phloem-limited bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (Las).
