Abstract:Citrus greening disease is caused by the pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, which is transmitted by the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri. There is no curative treatment or significant prevention mechanism for this detrimental disease that causes continued economic losses from reduced citrus production. A high quality genome of D. citri is being manually annotated to provide accurate gene models required to identify novel control targets and increase understanding of this pest. Here, we annotated… Show more
