"Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus" Infection Induces Citric Acid Accumulation and Immune Responses Mediated by the Transcription Factor CitPH4. [PDF]
The transcription factor CitPH4 is induced by “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” infection and reciprocally activates salicylic acid and citric acid biosynthesis in citrus fruits as citrus immune response. ABSTRACT Citrus huanglongbing (HLB), caused by “Candidatus Liberibacter” spp., is one of the most disastrous citrus diseases worldwide.

Editorial: Unravelling Citrus Huanglongbing Disease [PDF]
Huanglongbing (HLB) or citrus greening is a disease caused by the unculturable, fastidious, phloem-restrictive, Gram-negative bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter spp. Currently, there are three species linked to the disease. The Asian form associated with Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) is heat-tolerant and can survive well above 30°C.

Economic impact of Huanglongbing on orange production [PDF]
Abstract Huanglongbing (HLB) is considered one of the main citrus diseases; it spreads quickly through orchards, reducing the production and quality of the fruit of affected plants, and causes significant economic losses. In this context, the aim of this study was to estimate the incidence and economic impact of the losses generated by HLB in the ...

Genetic Signatures of Contrasted Outbreak Histories of "Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus", the Bacterium That Causes Citrus Huanglongbing, in Three Outermost Regions of the European Union. [PDF]
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.

Edge Effects and Huanglongbing [PDF]
Huanglongbing (HLB), spread by a psyllid vector, is globally considered a major threat to commercial and sustainable citrus production. Better understanding of the vector-mediated patterns of HLB spread is essential to inform and maximize disease management. From previous studies, edge effects are a significant characteristic of the HLB pathosystem and

Engineering of citrus to obtain huanglongbing resistance
Huanglongbing (HLB) disease is threatening the sustainability of citriculture in affected regions because of its rapid spread and the severity of the symptoms it induces. Herein, we summarise the main research findings that can be exploited to develop HLB-resistant cultivars.

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 ...

When does voluntary coordination work? Evidence from area‐wide pest management
Abstract We introduce the “coordination frontier” (CF), a simple practical tool to assess the likelihood of success of voluntary coordination in situations where, ex ante, the collective action solution provides an appealing alternative (e.g., for pest and disease control).

Huanglongbing in Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar [PDF]
Surveys conducted in Cambodia, Laos, and Myanmar have shown that several citrus species were showing HLB-like symptoms. PCR analysis of leaf midrib samples indicated that " Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus" infects various citrus cultivars in all the sites visited. Diaphorina citri , the Asian psyllid vector of HLB, was also seen in Cambodia, Laos and
