Diaphorina citri, the Asian citrus psyllid, is a vector of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), the causal agent of huanglongbing (HLB), the world's most serious disease of citrus. Owing to the relevancy and urgency of HLB research, the study of transmission biology in the HLB pathosystem has been a significant area of research. The focus of this article is to summarize and synthesize recent advancements in transmission biology between D. citri and CLas to create an updated view of the research landscape and to identify avenues for future research. Variability appears to play an important role in the transmission of CLas by D. citri. We advocate that it is important to understand the genetic basis for and environmental factors contributing to CLas transmission and how that variation may be exploited to develop and improve HLB control tactics.
亚洲柑橘木虱(Diaphorina citri)是柑橘黄龙病(HLB)的病原体亚洲韧皮杆菌(Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus,CLas)的传播媒介,柑橘黄龙病是世界上最严重的柑橘病害。由于柑橘黄龙病研究的相关性和紧迫性,黄龙病病理系统中的传播生物学研究一直是一个重要的研究领域。本文的重点是总结和综合亚洲柑橘木虱与亚洲韧皮杆菌之间传播生物学的最新进展,以形成对研究现状的最新认识,并确定未来的研究方向。变异性似乎在亚洲柑橘木虱传播亚洲韧皮杆菌的过程中起着重要作用。我们主张,了解亚洲韧皮杆菌传播的遗传基础和环境因素,以及如何利用这种变异性来制定和改进柑橘黄龙病防治策略非常重要。
