Phytoplasmas and Hemiptera pathogens

This cluster of papers focuses on the study of plant pathogens, particularly Phytoplasmas and Candidatus Liberibacter species, their interactions with insect vectors such as psyllids, and the impact on various host plants including citrus. Research areas include genome sequencing, pathogen transmission, disease control, and the ecological and molecular aspects of plant-pathogen-insect interactions.
