A Targeted Mass Spectrometry-Based Metabolomics Approach toward the Understanding of Host Responses to Huanglongbing Disease

Abstract excerpt

Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas) is the major culprit of Huanglongbing (HLB), the most destructive citrus disease worldwide. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the most common method for detecting the presence of CLas in the tree. However, due to the uneven distribution of bacteria and a minimum bacterial titer requirement, an infected tree may test false negative. Thus, our current study profiled...
