<scp>PM</scp> 9/27 (1) ‘Candidatus Liberibacter’ species that are causal agents of Huanglongbing disease of citrus and their vectors: procedures for official control

Citation
Anonymous (2020). EPPO Bulletin 50 (1)
Names
Liberibacter
Abstract
ScopeThis Standard describes procedures for official control with the aim of detecting, containing and eradicating those ‘Candidatus Liberibacter’ species which are causal agents of Huanglongbing (also known as citrus greening disease) and their vectors Trioza erytreae and Diaphorina citri. NPPOs may draw on this guidance when developing national contingency plans for outbreaks of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter’ species and their vectors.Approval and amendmentFirst approved in 2019‐09.

Draft Genome Sequence of ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma pini’-Related Strain MDPP: A Resource for Comparative Genomics of Gymnosperm-Infecting Phytoplasmas

Citation
Cai et al. (2020). Plant Disease 104 (4)
Names
Ca. Phytoplasma pini
Abstract
‘Candidatus Phytoplasma pini’-related strain MDPP, the reference strain of subgroup 16SrXXI-B, is a pathogen associated with witches’ broom disease of Pinus spp. in North America. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of ‘Ca. Phytoplasma pini’ strain MDPP, which consists of 474,136 bases, with a G + C content of 22.22%. This information will facilitate comparative genomics of gymnosperm-infecting phytoplasmas.

Distribution of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus in Citrus and the Asian Citrus Psyllid in Texas Over a Decade

Citation
Sétamou et al. (2020). Plant Disease 104 (4)
Names
Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus
Abstract
Huanglongbing (HLB, citrus greening disease) in the major citrus-producing states of the United States is associated with Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), which is vectored by the Asian citrus psyllid (ACP). Surveys were conducted in Texas from 2007 to 2017 to assess the prevalence and titer of CLas in ACPs and citrus trees. ACP and citrus leaf tissue samples were collected from suspect trees in residential areas and commercial groves (orchards) and assayed for CLas by quantitative PCR
