Insect biological control of the tomato‐potato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli, a review

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 53, Issue 4, Page 795-811, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The tomato‐potato psyllid (TPP) Bactericera cockerelli is a polyphagous herbivore and a renowned pest of solanaceous crops found in America and the Pacific region. Over the last fifteen years, several strategies have been tested worldwide to successfully manage this species, but these have been mostly unsuccessful.

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 ...

Development of Chemically Defined Media Reveals Citrate as Preferred Carbon Source for Liberibacter Growth

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Liberibacter crescens is the closest cultured relative of four important uncultured crop pathogens. Candidatus L. asiaticus, L. americanus, and L. africanus are causal agents of citrus greening disease, otherwise known as huanglongling (HLB).

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.
