Assessments of the Edge Effect in Intensity of Potato Zebra Chip Disease [PDF]
Zebra chip is a newly emerging potato disease which imparts dark colorations on fried chips, rendering them unmarketable. The disease is associated with the phloem-limited proteobacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solancearum’, vectored by the potato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli.

Spatial Patterns and Spread of Potato Zebra Chip Disease in the Texas Panhandle [PDF]
Zebra chip (ZC) is a disease that is affecting potato production in the southwestern United States and in other countries, and which has been linked to potato psyllids (Bactericera cockerelli) that harbor the bacterial plant pathogen ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’.

FoxP2 isoforms delineate spatiotemporal transcriptional networks for vocal learning in the zebra finch. [PDF]
Human speech is one of the few examples of vocal learning among mammals yet ~half of avian species exhibit this ability. Its neurogenetic basis is largely unknown beyond a shared requirement for FoxP2 in both humans and zebra finches.

Host plants and Wolbachia shape the population genetics of sympatric herbivore populations
Changing climate and land‐use practices have the potential to bring previously isolated populations of pest insects into new sympatry. This heightens the need to better understand how differing patterns of host–plant association, and unique endosymbionts,

Molecular mimicry, genetic homology, and gene sharing proteomic “molecular fingerprints” using an EBV (Epstein-Barr virus)-derived microarray as a potential diagnostic method in autoimmune disease [PDF]
EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus) and other human DNA viruses are associated with autoimmune syndromes in epidemiologic studies. In this work, immunoglobulin G response to EBV-encoded proteins which share regions with human immune response proteins from the human

Zebra Chip Disease Development in Relation to Plant Age and Time of 'Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum' Infection. [PDF]
A 2-year field study was conducted to evaluate plant susceptibility to ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’, the putative causal agent of zebra chip disease (ZC). Incubation period of ZC, the rate of symptom progress, and the rate of pathogen population growth were evaluated for individual plants infested on different weeks after emergence.

Oral delivery of double-stranded RNAs and siRNAs induces RNAi effects in the potato/tomato psyllid, Bactericerca cockerelli. [PDF]
The potato/tomato psyllid, Bactericerca cockerelli (B. cockerelli), and the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri (D. citri), are very important plant pests, but they are also vectors of phloem-limited bacteria that are associated with two devastating ...
