In this study, newly identified small molecules were examined for efficacy against 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' in commercial groves of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) and white grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) trees. We used benzbromarone and/or tolfenamic acid delivered by trunk injection. We evaluated safety and efficacy parameters by performing RNAseq of the citrus host responses, 16S rRNA gene sequencing to characterize citrus-associated microbial communities during treatment, and qRT-PCR as an indirect determination of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' viability. Analyses of the C. sinensis transcriptome indicated that each treatment consistently induced genes associated with normal metabolism and growth, without compromising tree viability or negatively affecting the indigenous citrus-associated microbiota. it was found that treatment-associated reduction in 'Ca. L. asiaticus' was positively correlated with the proliferation of several core taxa related with citrus health. no symptoms of phytotoxicity were observed in any of the treated trees. trials were also performed in commercial groves to examine the effect of each treatment on fruit productivity, juice quality and efficacy against 'Ca. L. asiaticus'. Increased fruit production (15%) was observed in C. paradisi following twelve months of treatment with benzbromarone and tolfenamic acid. these results were positively correlated with decreased 'Ca. L. asiaticus' transcriptional activity in root samples. 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' (CLas) is a fastidious, phloem-limited bacterium and the main causative agent of Huanglongbing (HLB), also known as citrus greening disease 1. Since its emergence in China nearly 100 years ago, a multitude of management strategies have been implemented in an attempt to mitigate the extensive economic damage caused by this pathogen. In areas such as California, where the disease is not yet widespread, management strategies are focused on increased testing for HLB and removal of infected trees, however, the disease remains prevalent in the majority of citrus producing regions throughout the world 1-5. Recent treatment strategies have included a combination of insecticides, antimicrobials and thermotherapy, but an effective long-term treatment, that is specific for CLas, remains elusive. In December 2018, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approved the use of oxytetracycline on citrus 6 ; however, CDC and FDA officials have expressed concerns
