Names
Liberibacter Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
The increasing impact of phloem-restricted bacteria on economically important crops has led to renewed interest in understanding the pathogenesis at the genomic and histological levels of these diseases. The genus Candidatus Liberibacter is associated with economically devastating diseases, highlighting Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) and Candidatus Liberibacter solanaceraum (CLso) in citrus and vegetables. Plant-pathogen interaction studies are limited due to the non-culturable nature

Diferenciación de la población mexicana de Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus por doble-locus genómico con repeticiones cortas en tándem

Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) se ha dispersado rápidamente a las regiones productoras de cítricos en México, ocasionando impactos económicos y sociales diferenciados. En México, los principales avances en investigación se han centrado en el manejo del vector, Diaphorina citri y en estudios de la interacción de CLas con limón mexicano. Sin embargo, la variabilidad genética de la bacteria en regiones productoras de México se ha estudiado poco. Por lo que, en el presente estudio se anali

Differential Expression of miRNAs Involved in Response to Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus Infection in Mexican Lime at Early and Late Stages of Huanglongbing Disease

Liberibacter Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
Huanglongbing (HLB) is one of the most destructive diseases threatening citriculture worldwide. This disease has been associated with α-proteobacteria species, namely Candidatus Liberibacter. Due to the unculturable nature of the causal agent, it has been difficult to mitigate the disease, and nowadays a cure is not available. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of gene expression, playing an essential role in abiotic and biotic stress in plants including antibacterial responses. However, know

Gene Expression Profile of Mexican Lime (Citrus aurantifolia) Trees in Response to Huanglongbing Disease caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus

Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
Nowadays, Huanglongbing (HLB) disease, associated with Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), seriously affects citriculture worldwide, and no cure is currently available. Transcriptomic analysis of host–pathogen interaction is the first step to understand the molecular landscape of a disease. Previous works have reported the transcriptome profiling in response to HLB in different susceptible citrus species; however, similar studies in tolerant citrus species, including Mexican lime, are limi
