Two plant bacteria, S. meliloti and Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus, share functional znuABC homologues that encode for a high affinity zinc uptake system. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The Znu system, encoded for by znuABC, can be found in multiple genera of bacteria and has been shown to be responsible for the import of zinc under low zinc conditions.

Osmotic stress induces long-term biofilm survival in Liberibacter crescens
BMC Microbiology, 2022 Citrus greening, also known as Huanglongbing (HLB), is a devastating citrus plant disease caused predominantly by Liberibacter asiaticus. While nearly all Liberibacter species remain uncultured, here we used the culturable L.

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3777-3802, June 2026.ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Liberibacters Associated with Citrus Huanglongbing in Brazil: ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ Is Heat Tolerant, ‘Ca. L. americanus’ Is Heat Sensitive [PDF]
Plant Disease, 2009 In São Paulo State, Brazil, ‘Candidatus Liberibacter americanus’ and ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ are associated with huanglongbing (HLB). Affected municipalities occur mainly in the central and southern regions, where the annual number of hours above 30°C is two to five times lower than that in the extreme northern and western regions.

Complete genome sequence of Liberibacter crescens BT-1 [PDF]
Standards in Genomic Sciences, 2012 Liberibacter crescens BT-1, a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterial isolate, was previously recovered from mountain papaya to gain insight on Huanglongbing (HLB) and Zebra Chip (ZC) diseases. The genome of BT-1 was sequenced at the Interdisciplinary Center for Biotechnology Research (ICBR) at the University of Florida.
