'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' Effector SDE525 hijacks NACα to Suppress Jasmonic Acid-Mediated Immunity in Citrus. [PDF]
Mol Plant PatholThe ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ secreted protein SDE525 suppresses the plant jasmonic acid defence pathway by targeting the citrus NACα protein, thereby weakening citrus resistance against the Asian citrus psyllid. ABSTRACT Citrus huanglongbing (HLB), caused by the phloem‐limited bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas), is one of ...

The ABC transporters in Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus [PDF]
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2012 AbstractCandidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (Ca. L. asiaticus) is a Gram‐negative bacterium and the pathogen of Citrus Greening disease (Huanglongbing, HLB). As a parasitic bacterium, Ca. L. asiaticus harbors ABC transporters that play important roles in exchanging chemical compounds between Ca. L. asiaticus and its host.

Liberibacter crescens biofilm formation in vitro: establishment of a model system for pathogenic ‘Candidatus Liberibacter spp.’ [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractThe Liberibacter genus comprises insect endosymbiont bacterial species that cause destructive plant diseases, including Huanglongbing in citrus and zebra chip in potato. To date, pathogenic ‘Candidatus Liberibacter spp.’ (CLs) remain uncultured, therefore the plant-associated Liberibacter crescens (Lcr), only cultured species of the genus, has ...

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Huanglongbing (HLB) disease, also known as citrus greening disease, was first reported in the US in 2005. Since then, the disease has decimated the citrus industry in Florida, resulting in billions of dollars in crop losses and the destruction of thousands of acres of citrus groves.
