Differential expression of “Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum” genes and prophage loci in different life stages of potato psyllid

Scientific Reports
Psyllid species, including the potato psyllid (PoP) Bactericera cockerelli (Sulc) (Triozidae) serve as host and vector of “Candidatus Liberibacter spp.” (“Ca. Liberibacter”), which also infects diverse plant hosts, including citrus and tomato.

Citrus huanglongbing: validation of Real-Time PCR (qPCR) for the detection of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus and Candidatus Liberibacter americanus in Colombia

Agronomía Colombiana, 2014
Citrus huanglongbing (HLB) is the most destructive citrus disease. Two of the three known HLB-associated Candidatus Liberibacter species were recently found to be present in the Americas.

Inhibition of a conserved bacterial dual-specificity phosphatase confers plant tolerance to Candidatus Liberibacter spp

iScience
Summary: “Candidatus Liberibacter spp.” are insect-vectored, fastidious, and vascular-limited phytopathogens. They are the presumptive causal agents of potato zebra chip, tomato vein clearing, and the devastating citrus greening disease worldwide.

Comparison of Potato and Asian Citrus Psyllid Adult and Nymph Transcriptomes Identified Vector Transcripts with Potential Involvement in Circulative, Propagative Liberibacter Transmission

Pathogens, 2014
The potato psyllid (PoP) Bactericera cockerelli (Sulc) and Asian citrus psyllid (ACP) Diaphorina citri Kuwayama are the insect vectors of the fastidious plant pathogen, Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum (CLso) and Ca. L. asiaticus (CLas), respectively.

A Bacterial Effector Hijacks NBR1 to Modulate Both Autophagy and Ubiquitination‐Mediated Degradation That Promotes Bacterial Infection

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2492-2509, April 2026.
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.

Predictive Sequence Analysis of the Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus Proteome

PLoS ONE, 2012
Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (Ca. L. asiaticus) is a parasitic gram-negative bacterium that is closely associated with Huanglongbing (HLB), a worldwide citrus disease. Given the difficulty in culturing the bacterium and thus in its experimental characterization, computational analyses of the whole Ca. L.

Genetic Signatures of Contrasted Outbreak Histories of “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus”, the Bacterium That Causes Citrus Huanglongbing, in Three Outermost Regions of the European Union

Evolutionary Applications
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 ...

Characterization of the bacterial communities of psyllids associated with Rutaceae in Bhutan by high throughput sequencing

BMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Several plant-pathogenic bacteria are transmitted by insect vector species that often also act as hosts. In this interface, these bacteria encounter plant endophytic, insect endosymbiotic and other microbes.

Soil beneficial bacteria: Harnessing tools for optimizing citrus growth and soil health in pH‐stressed soils

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Rhizosphere bacteria can support crop production by promoting plant health, soil fertility, and resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the potential role of soil‐beneficial bacteria, particularly plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), remains inadequately explored in citrus production grown on pH‐stressed soil.
