Assessment of Psyllid Handling and DNA Extraction Methods in the Detection of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter Solanacearum’ by qPCR

Citation
Quintana et al. (2022). Microorganisms 10 (6)
Names
Liberibacter “Liberibacter solanacearum”
Abstract
‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’ (CaLsol) is an uncultured bacterium, transmitted by psyllids and associated with several diseases in Solanaceae and Apiaceae crops. CaLsol detection in psyllids often requires insect destruction, preventing a subsequent morphological identification. In this work, we have assessed the influence on the detection of CaLsol by PCR in Bactericera trigonica (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), of four specimen preparations (entire body, ground, cut-off head, and punctured abd

Assessment of Multilocus Sequence Analysis (MLSA) for Identification of Candidatus Liberibacter Solanacearum from Different Host Plants in Spain

Citation

Names
“Liberibacter solanacearum” Liberibacter
Abstract
Liberibacter is a bacterial group causing different diseases and disorders in plants. Among liberibacters, Candidatus Liberibacter solanaceraum (CLso) produces disorders in several species mainly within Apiaceae and Solanaceae families. CLso isolates are usually grouped in defined haplotypes according to single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes associated with ribosomal elements. In order to characterize more precisely isolates of CLso identified in potato in Spain, a Multilocus Sequence Analysi

‘Candidatus Liberibacter Solanacearum’ Is Unlikely to Be Transmitted Spontaneously from Infected Carrot Plants to Citrus Plants by Trioza Erytreae

Citation
Quintana-González de Chaves et al. (2020). Insects 11 (8)
Names
“Liberibacter solanacearum” Liberibacter
Abstract
Bacteria belonging to ‘Candidatus Liberibacter spp.’ are associated with various severe diseases in the five continents. The African citrus psyllid Trioza erytreae (Hemiptera: Triozidae) is an efficient vector of citrus huanglongbing-HLB disease, absent in the Mediterranean basin. This psyllid is currently present in the islands and mainland Portugal and Spain, where the prevalence of ‘Ca. Liberibacter solanacearum’ (CaLsol) associated to a carrot disease is high. Trioza erytreae normally feeds

Transmission of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’ by Bactericera trigonica Hodkinson to vegetable hosts

Citation
Teresani et al. (2018). Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research 15 (4)
Names
“Liberibacter solanacearum”
Abstract
The bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’ is a recent plant pathogen of several crops in Solanaceae and Apiaceae and is associated with economically important diseases. The bacterium is a carrot seed borne pathogen that can also be transmitted from potato mother tubers and by psyllid vectors. The psyllid Bactericera trigonica Hodkinson was described carrying CaLso associated with vegetative disorders in carrot and celery crops in Spain and its competence to transmit this phloem-limite
