This study identifies a bacterial outer membrane protein as a substrate of a citrus protease, showing that protease activity reduces pathogen titers and delays disease symptoms in citrus.

This study shows that overexpressing AtNPR1 or silencing AtNPR3/AtNPR4 orthologs in citrus enhances HLB tolerance by regulating immune balance and reducing callose and ROS accumulation.

This study profiles the transcriptome of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus in different citrus tissues, revealing novel insights into its pathogenesis and virulence mechanisms.
