The Influence of Learning on Host Plant Preference in a Significant Phytopathogen Vector, Diaphorina citri.
Although specialist herbivorous insects are guided by innate responses to host plant cues, host plant preference may be influenced by experience and is not dictated by instinct alone. The effect of learning on host plant preference was examined in the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri; vector of the causal agent of citrus greening disease or huanglongbing. We investigated: a) whether devel...

Antiserum production. Antiserum was Fletcher, J., and Slack, S. A. 1986. Latex agglutination as a rapid detection assay for Spiroplasma produced in New Zealand white ra 3 citri. Plant Disease 70:754-756. against Illinois horseradish isolates and BR6 as described (5).

متن کاملComparison of the membrane composition of Spiroplasma citri and the corn stunt Spiroplasma.
Components of membranes isolated from Spiroplasma citri and corn stunt spiroplasma grown at 28 degrees C were analyzed. On a protein basis, lipid phosphorus was lower and cholesterol was higher in S. citri. Only minor differences between the two species were found in fatty acid composition, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide diaphorase, and adenosine triphosphatase.
متن کاملAntigenic relatedness between the spiralins of Spiroplasma citri and Spiroplasma melliferum.
Four spiralins were compared by rocket immunoelectrophoresis, quantitative immunoblotting techniques, and the spiroplasma deformation test with the use of antispiralin (polyclonal) monospecific antibodies. This investigation revealed that the spiralins of Spiroplasma citri and S. melliferum are antigenically related and that probably no more than two epitopes simultaneously saturable with antib...
متن کاملSpiroplasmas of Group I: the Spiroplasma citri cluster.
We propose that Group I spiroplasmas be subdivided into seven, rather than four, subgroups. The seven subgroups showed remarkable homogeneity when several representative strains were compared. Hybridization reactions between DNAs of representative strains within subgroups were generally at least 90 percent, and usually at least 80 percent co-migrating cell proteins were found. In addition, when...
