Impact of Citrus Greening on Citrus Operations in Florida
Florida is the largest orange-producing state in the United States and the third largest orange producer in the world, but the Florida citrus industry and its position in the global citrus market are being jeopardized by a bacterial disease known as citrus greening or Huanglongbing (HLB). HLB hurts the vascular systems of citrus trees and prevents them

Citrus Greening and Citrus Tree Planting in Florida
This 4-page fact sheet examines the impact of the presence of citrus greening on new tree plantings in the Florida citrus industry. Sweet oranges are by far the most important citrus variety grown in Florida, so the analysis is limited to sweet orange plantings. Because citrus greening impacts citrus producers through reduced yield, increased mortality,

Abstract Introduction Citrus greening (aka Huanglongbing, HLB) caused primarily by the bacterial pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) has devastating effects on the global citrus industry. Agricultural management‐induced changes in microbial communities are hypothesised to contribute toward HLB resistance by reducing pathogen titre and ...

Monitoring strategies for the Citrus Mealybug in Citrus orchards
The Citrus Mealybug (CM), Planococcus citri (Risso), is a major pest in many citrus growing areas. Sampling of CM prior to fruit colonisation in the spring is difficult and presents an obstacle to CM management. Monitoring population densities is based on male capture using traps baited with female sex pheromone.
