Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Liviidae), is an invasive citrus pest in southern California, which secretes honeydew and has the potential to spread a lethal bacterial disease, huanglongbing, of citrus.

Citrus greening (huanglongbing) is the most destructive disease of citrus worldwide. It is spread by citrus psyllids and is associated with phloem-limited bacteria of three species of α-Proteobacteria, namely, 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus', 'Ca. L. americanus', and 'Ca. L. africanus'. Recent findings suggested that some Japanese strains lack the bacteriophage-type DNA polymerase region (D...

Data sources Studies in any language were identified by searching Medline (1966–2000), EMBASE/Excerpta Medica (1980–2000), the Cochrane Library, and the Oxford Pain Relief Database.

It is expected that personal devices should be more intellecutual and reliable presence for the user in the ubiquitous computing environment. Context awareness is significant ability to realize such expectation, however, it has not been enough discussed that what type of sensors are effecient and context are acquirable in the existing research. We have developed Muffin which has 15 sensors and ...

liquor amnii is derived. This is no new subject of debate. An extended account of the various views regarding it was given by Martin Schurig in his Evibryologia Historico-medica in 1732. Ere that date it had already been discussed whether the fluid was of maternal or foetal origin, and, in the latter case, whether it was produced by the kidneys, the skin, the brain, the eyes, the mouth, or the ...

Mymarommatidae surveys were carried out through the use of yellow pan traps in crops of green dwarf coconut, Cocos nucifera L. (Arecales: Arecaceae), papaya, Carica papaya L. (Brassicales: Caricaceae), citrus, Citrus spp. L. (Sapindales: Rutaceae), and guava, Psidium guajava L.

A range of leaf symptoms, including blotchy mottle, yellowing, and small, upright leaves with a variety of chlorotic patterns resembling those induced by zinc deficiencies, are associated with huanglongbing (HLB, yellow shoot disease), a worldwide destructive citrus disease. HLB is presumably caused by the phloem-limited fastidious prokaryotic α-proteobacterium 'Candidatus Liberibacter spp.' Pr...
