Feeding behaviour of Bactericera cockerelli (Šulc) (Hemiptera: Psylloidea: Triozidae) changes when infected with Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum

Citation
Valenzuela et al. (2020). Arthropod-Plant Interactions 14 (5)
Names
“Liberibacter solanacearum”
Abstract
AbstractPathogens which need a vector for their transmission can alter the vectors’ behaviour to favour their spread. We used the electrical penetration graph technique to investigate this hypothesis by using the tomato potato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli infected or not with the plant pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum (CLso) on African boxthorn and tomato. Probing was not affected by the host type but there was a significant effect on probing due to the infection status of the psy

Complete Genome Sequence of “ Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris” RP166, a Plant Pathogen Associated with Rapeseed Phyllody Disease in Poland

Citation
Cho et al. (2020). Microbiology Resource Announcements 9 (35)
Names
Ca. Phytoplasma asteris
Abstract
The complete genome sequence of “ Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris” RP166, which consists of one 829,546-bp circular chromosome, is presented in this work. This bacterium is associated with rapeseed phyllody disease in Poland and belongs to the 16SrI-B (i.e., aster yellows) group.

Globally Abundant “ Candidatus Udaeobacter” Benefits from Release of Antibiotics in Soil and Potentially Performs Trace Gas Scavenging

Citation
Willms et al. (2020). mSphere 5 (4)
Names
Ca. Udaeobacter
Abstract
Soil bacteria have been investigated for more than a century, but one of the most dominant terrestrial groups on Earth, “ Candidatus Udaeobacter,” remains elusive and largely unexplored. Its natural habitat is considered a major reservoir of antibiotics, which directly or indirectly impact phylogenetically diverse microorganisms. Here, we found that “ Ca. Udaeobacter” representatives exhibit multidrug resistance and not only evade harm

Vasculitis due to Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis: A Cohort Study of 40 Swedish Patients

Citation
Höper et al. (2020). Clinical Infectious Diseases 73 (7)
Names
Ca. Neoehrlichia mikurensis
Abstract
Abstract Background Candidatus (Ca.) Neoehrlichia (N.) mikurensis is an emerging tick-borne pathogen of humans that is closely related to Ehrlichia and Anaplasma species. This strict intracellular bacterium escapes detection by routine microbiologic diagnostic methods such as blood culture, leading to considerable under-diagnosis of the infectious disease it causes, neoehrlichiosis. Methods

Acquisition and transmission of two ‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’ haplotypes by the tomato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli

Citation
Tang et al. (2020). Scientific Reports 10 (1)
Names
“Liberibacter solanacearum”
Abstract
Abstract‘Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum’ (Lso) is a pathogen of solanaceous crops. Two haplotypes of Lso (LsoA and LsoB) are present in North America; both are transmitted by the tomato psyllid, Bactericera cockerelli (Šulc), in a circulative and propagative manner and cause damaging plant diseases (e.g. Zebra chip in potatoes). In this study, we investigated the acquisition and transmission of LsoA or LsoB by the tomato psyllid. We quantified the titer of Lso haplotype A and B in adult ps

Symbiosis between nanohaloarchaeon and haloarchaeon is based on utilization of different polysaccharides

Names
“Nanohalobiia” Ca. Nanohalobium constans “Nanohalobiales” “Nanohalobiaceae”
Abstract
Significance We report on cultivation and characterization of an association between Candidatus Nanohalobium constans and its host, the chitinotrophic haloarchaeon Halomicrobium LC1Hm, obtained from a crystallizer pond of marine solar salterns. High-quality nanohaloarchael genome sequence in conjunction with electron- and fluorescence microscopy, growth analysis, and proteomic and metabolomic data revealed mutually beneficial
