Detection and Analysis of the Bacterium,Xylella fastidiosa, in Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter,Homalodisca vitripennis, Populations in Texas

Abstract: The glassy-winged sharpshooter, Homalodisca vitripeninis Germar (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), is a xylophagous insect that is an endemic pest of several economically important plants in Texas. H. vitripennis is the main vector of Xylella fastidiosa Wells (Xanthomonadales: Xanthomonadaceae), the bacterium that causes Pierce's disease of grapevine and can travel long distances putting much of Texas grape production at risk. Understanding the movement of H. vitripennis populations capable of transmitting X. fastidio… Show more

“…Publications were filtered by selecting only records where the pathogen detection on symptomatic grapevines was confirmed by PCR or Elisa. The exact coordinates of the records were taken when available in the publication or approximated to locality or county level to build the Supplementary Data 1 19,39,41,[75][76][77][78][79] . For modelling purposes and to attempt a general rough estimate of the R 0 parameter valid for the entire US, we assumed a single vector with a uniform spatial distribution.…”

“…Model calibration and validation. To attempt a rough estimate of the R 0 parameter in the United States, assuming a uniform spatial distribution of the vectors, we ran several model simulations validating the spatiotemporal distribution of PD from data collected from publications between 2001 and 2015 [19,39,41,[61][62][63][64][65]. We found R 0 = 8 as the optimal parameter for maximising the area under a ROC curve (Supplementary Fig.…”

“…A 1-l aliquot was used from each sample in 50-l PCR reactions. Primers used for pyrosequencing were Gray28F 5Ј TTT GAT CNT GGC TCA G 3Ј and Gray519R 5Ј GTN TTA CNG CGG CKG CTG 3Ј (Dowd et al 2008;Hail et al 2010Hail et al , 2011. Initial generation of the sequencing library used a one-step PCR with a total of 30 cycles using HotStar Taq Plus Master Mix (Qiagen) and the following thermal protocol: 94ЊC for 3 min followed by 30 cycles of 94ЊC for 30 s; 60ЊC for 40 s and 72ЊC for 1 min; and a Þnal elongation step at 72ЊC for 5 min.…”
