Molecular signatures between citrus and Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus.
Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), also known as citrus greening, is one of the most devastating citrus diseases worldwide. Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) is the most prevalent strain associated with HLB, which is yet to be cultured in vitro.

SEC-translocon dependent extracytoplasmic proteins of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus [PDF]
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.

Phloem-inhabiting bacterial phytopathogens often have smaller genomes than other bacterial phytopathogens. It is thought that they depend on both other phloem microbiota and phloem nutrients for colonization of the host. However, the mechanism underlying

Laboratory Protocols for Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus Transmission Biology and Management Research. [PDF]
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.

The protein interactome of the citrus Huanglongbing pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. [PDF]
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.

Modeling ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ Movement Within Citrus Plants
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]
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.
