Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Citrus greening disease, or Huanglongbing (HLB), has caused devastating losses to citrus production in Florida, with yields declining by over 90% since 2005. Despite extensive efforts, no sustainable solution has been widely effective. Here, transgenic ‘Hamlin’ sweet orange lines engineered to constitutively express the Arabidopsis NPR1 ...

Monitoramento populacional de Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, 1908 (Hemiptera: Liviidae) em cinco municípios do Recôncavo da Bahia. [PDF]
, 2013 O psilídeo Diaphorina citri é um importante vetor da bactéria Candidatus liberibacter spp., causadora do HLB (Huaglongbing), doença mais devastadora dos citros, assumindo, assim, o status de principal praga nessa cultura.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant defensins (PDFs) are cysteine‐rich antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) that are important components of plant immunity. They occur constitutively in various plant tissues but are also upregulated upon stress. Therefore, these molecules are of great interest as markers for the diagnosis of early forest stress response in plants at the molecular

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), a devastating disease caused by the unculturable bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas), poses a severe threat to global citrus production. CLas secretes effectors to suppress host immune responses and facilitate its colonisation. Previously, the CLas effector SECP8 (CLIBASIA_05330) has been identified

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autophagy and the ubiquitin/26S proteasome system (UPS) play critical roles in the immune defence of the host against pathogen invasion. As a countermeasure, pathogens deploy effector proteins to subvert or hijack autophagy and UPS processes.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT MicroRNA319 (miR319) has been demonstrated to regulate plant development and responses to stress such as drought and salt. However, its role in thermotolerance, particularly in cool season grasses, remains unclear. Here we report that miR319 plays a negative role in heat tolerance of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera).

Lateral Failure of Spars [PDF]
It was concluded that after the critical span or depth-breadth ratio has been reached, the modulus of rupture varies approximately inversely as the first power of the span and of the depth-breadth ratio.

Welcome Pathogens: Transient Heat Dampens Immune Responses to Acibenzolar‐S‐Methyl in Apple Plants
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Climate change affects plant‐pathogen interactions, with disease outcome varying depending on the pathosystem and environmental scenario. In Arabidopsis, a thermo‐sensitive module of salicylic acid (SA) signalling makes immunity vulnerable to heat.

Update on brassinosteroids for HLB management
EDIS, 2019 We summarize second year of results of the effect of brassinosteroid treatment on HLB affected trees. We document some positive effects of brassinosteroids in tree health and fruit quality of Valencia oranges. In addition, we have shown that in younger trees brassinosteroids promote more vigorous growth.
