Potato production in the United States: Two‐decade update and future sustainable pathways

Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract In the United States, agriculture accounts for approximately 10% of total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including contributions from potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) production, a staple crop in the American diet. However, limited research has focused on recent trends in US potato production, particularly the contribution of different ...

Comparison of Potato and Asian Citrus Psyllid Adult and Nymph Transcriptomes Identified Vector Transcripts with Potential Involvement in Circulative, Propagative Liberibacter Transmission

Pathogens, 2014
The potato psyllid (PoP) Bactericera cockerelli (Sulc) and Asian citrus psyllid (ACP) Diaphorina citri Kuwayama are the insect vectors of the fastidious plant pathogen, Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum (CLso) and Ca. L. asiaticus (CLas), respectively.

First Report of “Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum” in Pepper Plants in México

Plant Disease, 2009
Bell pepper (Capsicum annuum) plants exhibiting symptoms that resembled those of potato psyllid (Bactericera cockerelli Sulc) damage and “Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum” infection (2) were observed in a pepper field in La Cruz de Elota, Sinaloa, México in March 2009, with an infection rate of 1.5%. Plants exhibited chlorotic or pale green apical

Reduced content of gamma‐aminobutyric acid enhances resistance to bacterial wilt disease in tomato

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 3, Page 792-806, March 2025.
Summary Bacteria within the Ralstonia solanacearum species complex cause devastating diseases in numerous crops, causing important losses in food production and industrial supply. Despite extensive efforts to enhance plant tolerance to disease caused by Ralstonia, efficient and sustainable approaches are still missing.

Liberibacter, A Preemptive Bacterium: Apoptotic Response Repression in the Host Gut at the Early Infection to Facilitate Its Acquisition and Transmission

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
“Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum” (Lso) is a phloem-limited Gram-negative bacterium that infects crops worldwide. In North America, two haplotypes of Lso (LsoA and LsoB) are transmitted by the potato psyllid, Bactericera cockerelli (Šulc), in a ...

Genetic Signatures of Contrasted Outbreak Histories of “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus”, the Bacterium That Causes Citrus Huanglongbing, in Three Outermost Regions of the European Union

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT In an era of trade globalization and climate change, crop pathogens and pests are a genuine threat to food security. The detailed characterization of emerging pathogen populations is a prerequisite for managing invasive species pathways and designing sustainable disease control strategies.

Commodity risk assessment of Petunia spp. and Calibrachoa spp. unrooted cuttings from Costa Rica

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2024.
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to evaluate the probability of entry of pests (likelihood of pest freedom at entry), including both regulated and non‐regulated pests, associated with unrooted cuttings of the genera Petunia and Calibrachoa produced under physical isolation in Costa Rica.

Oral delivery of double-stranded RNAs and siRNAs induces RNAi effects in the potato/tomato psyllid, Bactericerca cockerelli. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The potato/tomato psyllid, Bactericerca cockerelli (B. cockerelli), and the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri (D. citri), are very important plant pests, but they are also vectors of phloem-limited bacteria that are associated with two devastating ...
