Using insects to detect, monitor and predict the distribution of <i>Xylella fastidiosa:</i> a case study in Corsica
2018-01-01
Abstract excerpt
We sampled ca 2500 specimens of Philaenus spumarius throughout Corsica without a priori on the presence of symptoms on plants. We screened 448 specimens for the presence of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) using qPCR and a custom nested PCR. qPCR appeared versatile and under-estimated the prevalence of Xf .
