The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri, transmits the putative causal agent of citrus greening disease, ‘ Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’. The transmission occurs in a propagative, circulative manner. Specific protein–protein interactions are required for the accomplishment of the transmission process. We employed the far-Western technique, also known as protein overlay assay, and mass spectrometry to identify D. citri proteins that specifically recognize membrane proteins of ‘ Ca. L. asiaticus’. Whole-body protein extracts of D. citri were separated by electrophoresis and blotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes. The membranes were overlayed with sonicated leaf midrib extracts from ‘ Ca. L. asiaticus’-infected citrus plants. The protein complexes were detected using different antibodies against ‘ Ca. L. asiaticus’ membrane proteins and peptidoglycans associated with lipoproteins. By comparison, spots were extracted from a polyacrylamide gel for liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis. Identified proteins included ATP synthase alpha and beta subunits, actin, alpha- and beta-tubulins, transitional endoplasmic reticulum ATPase TER94, 78 kDa glucose-regulated protein, and arginine kinase. These findings emphasize the involvement of energy machinery and muscle proteins in the ‘ Ca. L. asiaticus’– D. citri interactions. Understanding the pathogen–vector interactions will lead to better-designed control strategies based on the interference with specific interactions and/or blocking transmission.
