Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) was identified in September 2013 in olive trees affected by the Olive quick decline syndrome (OQDS) in the Salento peninsula (southern Italy) and denoted Xf strain CoDiRO. Xf is comprised of a group of genetically diverse bacteria in the class Gammaproteobacteria that causes severe plant diseases in many crops and ornamentals. The bacterium is acquired and transmitted by xylem-sap feeding hemipterans such as sharpshooter leafhoppers (Cicadellidae, Cicadellinae), froghoppers and spittlebugs (Aphrophoridae and Cercopidae) and, possibly, cicadas (Cicadidae and Tibicinidae.)

Abstract
Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) was identified in September 2013 in olive trees affected by the Olive quick decline syndrome (OQDS) in the Salento peninsula (southern Italy) and denoted Xf strain CoDiRO. Xf is comprised of a group of genetically diverse bacteria in the class Gammaproteobacteria that causes severe plant diseases in many crops and ornamentals. The bacterium is acquired and transmitted by xylem-sap feeding hemipterans such as sharpshooter leafhoppers (Cicadellidae, Cicadellinae), froghoppers and spittlebugs (Aphrophoridae and Cercopidae) and, possibly, cicadas (Cicadidae and Tibicinidae.)File in questo prodotto:
