A Diagnostic Guide for Laurel Wilt Disease in Avocado

Plant Health Progress, 2022
Laurel wilt disease (LWD), caused by the ambrosia fungus Raffaelea lauricola, is a deadly vascular disease affecting numerous hosts in the Lauraceae family, including important forest species and avocado trees. The fungal pathogen is spread by beetle-vectors and through root grafts.

Management of laurel wilt of avocado, caused by Raffaelea lauricola

European Journal of Plant Pathology, 2017
Laurel wilt is caused by Raffaelea lauricola, a nutritional symbiont of an Asian ambrosia beetle, Xyleborus glabratus. American members of the Lauraceae plant family are most susceptible and 300 million trees have been killed by the disease in the southeastern USA since 2003.

Presence of the causal agent of laurel wilt disease in sassafras-associated insects

Environmental Entomology, 2023
Abstract Laurel wilt disease (LWD) is a lethal vascular wilt caused by an exotic ambrosia beetle–fungal complex, the redbay ambrosia beetle, Xyleborus glabratus Eichhoff, and its nutritional symbiont, Harringtonia lauricola (Harr., Fraedrich & Aghayeva) de Beer & Procter. LWD is responsible for the widespread mortality of redbay,

High efficiency transformation and mutant screening of the laurel wilt pathogen, Raffaelea lauricola

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2020
The fungal pathogen, Raffaelea lauricola, is the causative agent of laurel wilt, a devastating disease affecting the Lauraceae family. The fungus is vectored by ambrosia beetles that carry the fungus in specialized structures (mycangia), with the fungus acting as a symbiont and food source for beetle larvae growing in tree galleries.

Assessing the Profitability of Avocado Production in South Florida in the Presence of Laurel Wilt ()

open access: yesTheoretical Economics Letters, 2015
Laurel wilt (LW) is a lethal disease of trees in the Lauraceae plant family, including the economic significant commercial crop avocado, Persea americana. To date, an estimated one-half billion native trees have been destroyed by the disease in the southeastern United States, including the loss of significant and diverse taxa in the Everglades.

Rapid Detection of the Laurel Wilt Pathogen in Sapwood of Lauraceae Hosts

Plant Health Progress, 2020
Laurel wilt (LW), caused by Raffaelea lauricola (RL), is a vascular fungal disease affecting species in the Lauraceae that has rapidly spread across the United States. This disease has caused significant tree losses in natural forests and Florida’s commercial avocado orchards. RL spreads through ambrosia beetle vectors and root grafts. Early detection

Identification of the Achilles heels of the laurel wilt pathogen and its beetle vector

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2018
Ambrosia beetles harbor fungal symbionts that serve as food sources for larvae and adults. These beetles lay their eggs along tunnels in xylem sapwood, which is the substrate for fungal growth. Symbiotic fungi of the genus Raffaelea found in invasive and indigenous ambrosia beetles include the highly virulent plant pathogen Raffaelea lauricola ...
