Imported parasitic wasp helps control red gum lerp psyllid [PDF]

California Agriculture, 2005
The red gum lerp psyllid is an insect native to Australia, where it feeds upon eucalyptus species. Since 1998 this psyllid has spread throughout California, resulting in millions of dollars in damage and control costs.

Psyllid resistance in Leucaena. Part 2. Quantification of production lossesfrom psyllid damage

Agroforestry Systems, 2003
The psyllid insect (Heteropsylla cubana) is known to reduce biomass production in Leucaena species, but little information is available on the level of reduction, or whether a commonly used plant damage rating scale can be related to production losses.

Psyllid Vectors

, 2019
‘Candidatus Phytoplasma’ species are mostly transmitted from plant to plant by phloem feeding hemipterans, primarily leafhoppers (Cicadellidae) and planthoppers (Fulgoroidea) (Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha). However, there is one group of phytoplasmas, the 16SrX or apple proliferation group, whose members are transmitted by psyllid vectors of the ...

Hosts of the Asian citrus psyllid.

, 2020
The nymphal stages of the Psylloidea are almost invariably host plant specific. Most species are associated with just one or two host plant species within a single genus. More rarely, species may occur on two or more closely related host plant genera. Adult psyllids are more catholic in their choice of food plant.

Biocontrol program targets Asian citrus psyllid in California's urban areas [PDF]

California Agriculture, 2017
In California, Asian citrus psyllid vectors the bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, which causes the lethal citrus disease huanglongbing. The top priority for California's citrus industry has been to diminish the rate of bacterium spread by ...

Characterization of the Asian Citrus Psyllid Transcriptome [PDF]

Journal of Genomics, 2014
The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) is a vector for the causative agents of Huanglongbing, which threatens citrus production worldwide. This study reports and discusses the first D. citri transcriptomes, encompassing the three main life stages of D. citri, egg, nymph and adult.

Rootstock impacts on citrus flush dynamics, vegetative growth, and Diaphorina citri infestation and dispersion: Implications for huanglongbing management. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Dwarfing citrus rootstocks restrict flush shoot growth on the scion, thereby reducing Asian citrus psyllid infestation, dispersal, and huanglongbing (HLB) progression. These findings support the use of dwarfing rootstocks as an effective cultural strategy in integrated HLB management for citrus orchards.

Metabolic changes and potential biomarkers in "Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum"-infected potato psyllids: implications for psyllid-pathogen interactions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Psyllid yellows, vein-greening (VG), and zebra chip (ZC) diseases, which are primarily transmitted by potato psyllid (PoP) carrying Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum (CLso), have caused significant losses in solanaceous crop production worldwide ...

Unamplified, Long-Read Metagenomic Sequencing Approach to Close Endosymbiont Genomes of Low-Biomass Insect Populations

Microorganisms, 2022
With the current advancements in DNA sequencing technology, the limiting factor in long-read metagenomic assemblies is now the quantity and quality of input DNA. Although these requirements can be met through the use of axenic bacterial cultures or large
