Bacterial plant pathogens affect the locomotor behavior of the insect vector: a case study of Citrus volkameriana–Triozae erytreae–Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus system [PDF]
AbstractPlant pathogens can alter the behavior of their insect vectors as well as their survival and reproduction. The African psyllid, Trioza erytreae, is one of the vectors of Huanglongbing, a citrus disease caused mainly by “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” (CLas). The purpose of this study was to characterize the effects of CLas on the psyllid, T.
