one or more or two or more compounds released by a citrus plant in quantities that are altered during infection with Huanglongbing disease, where the composition is an attractant for psyllids. Furthermore, compositions contain one or more active compounds which constitute a synthetic chemical blend ...
Adult Asian citrus psyllids are brownish and usually feed on the underside of leaves. They feed with their heads down, almost touching the surface of the leaf. Because of the shape of their head, their bodies are lifted off the leaf at about a 45° angle (fig. 5). The adults will...
Pest Control Solutions/Control By Pest/ Psyllids / Asian Citrus Psyllid Asian Citrus PsyllidFirst spotted in Palm Beach County, Florida in 1998, the Asian citrus psyllid is rapidly becoming a threat to citrus and other close relatives throughout select regions of the United States. Its movement ...
Diaphorina citriKuwayama (Hemiptera: Liviidae)1known as the Asian citrus psyllid (ACP), is an important vector which transmits a phloem-limited bacteria (CandidatusLiberibacter asiaticus) strongly implicated in huanglongbing (HLB; citrus greening disease). As the world’s most serious disease of citru...

Citrus-greening disease (柑橘青果病) is a bacterial infection (细菌感染) of citrus-fruit (柑橘) trees, spread by insects called psyllids (n.木虱). It was first recorded a century ago, in China, and it has since spread widely. It can be extremely harmful. Within a decade of its arr...

The psyllids (virgin 7-day-old males or females) were released on the center of the arena. An olfactometer test consisted of the release of a single D. citri and the observation (from 15:00 to 18:00). As a criterion for data collection from each insect, five minutes were allowed ...
The approach involves inserting a gene into a citrus tree that produces a protein that can kill baby Asian citrus psyllids, the bugs that transmit the greening disease. That gene normally occurs in a soil-borne bacterium called Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). ...
No signal was detected in the guts of psyllids that were reared on healthy trees under the same conditions (Fig. 1). Upon examination of the midguts under higher magnification, the CLas FISH probe was detected as small dots with diameter of about 0.5 μm in the gut lumen. The signal...
