SEC-translocon dependent extracytoplasmic proteins of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB) is the most destructive citrus disease worldwide. HLB is associated with three species of the phloem-limited, gram-negative, fastidious α-proteobacteria: Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (Las), Ca. L. americanus (Lam), and Ca.

A Novel Microviridae Phage (CLasMV1) From “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 “CandidatusLiberibacter asiaticus” (CLas) is an unculturable phloem-limited α-proteobacterium associated with citrus Huanglongbing (HLB; yellow shoot disease). HLB is currently threatening citrus production worldwide. Understanding the CLas biology is critical for HLB management.

The protein interactome of the citrus Huanglongbing pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2023 AbstractThe bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) causes citrus Huanglongbing disease. Our understanding of the pathogenicity and biology of this microorganism remains limited because CLas has not yet been cultivated in artificial media.

A synthetic 'essentialome' for axenic culturing of 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus'. [PDF]
BMC Res Notes, 2022 Abstract Objective ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas) is associated with the devastating citrus ‘greening’ disease. All attempts to achieve axenic growth and complete Koch’s postulates with CLas have failed to date, at best yielding complex cocultures with very low CLas titers detectable only by PCR.

Modeling ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ Movement Within Citrus Plants
Phytopathology®, 2021 The phloem-limited ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (Las) causes huanglongbing, a destructive citrus disease. Graft-inoculated potted plants were used to assess Las speed of movement in phloem in the greenhouse, and the impacts of temperature on plant colonization in growth-chamber experiments. For assessment of Las speed, plants were inoculated at

The ABC transporters in Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus [PDF]
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2012 AbstractCandidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (Ca. L. asiaticus) is a Gram‐negative bacterium and the pathogen of Citrus Greening disease (Huanglongbing, HLB). As a parasitic bacterium, Ca. L. asiaticus harbors ABC transporters that play important roles in exchanging chemical compounds between Ca. L. asiaticus and its host.

Neuropeptide Ecdysis-Triggering Hormone and Its Receptor Mediate the Fecundity Improvement of 'Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus'-Infected Diaphorina citri Females and CLas Proliferation. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)In CLas‐infected D. citri, CLas lowers 20E levels initially, relieving the suppression of ETH release. The subsequent increase in ETH levels upregulates its receptor DcETHR and activates the JH signaling pathway. The signaling cascade of 20E‐ETH/ETHR‐JH along with miR‐210, targeting DcETHR, boost female fecundity in CLas+ D.

Alternative Tissue Sampling for Improved Detection of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2023 Early detection and prompt response are key factors in the eradication of ‘huanglongbing’ (HLB) in California. Currently, qPCR testing of leaf tissue guides the removal of infected trees. However, because of the uneven distribution of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas) in an infected tree and asymptomatic infection, selecting the best leaves to
