Definitive elucidation of the inoculation mechanism of Xylella fastidiosa by sharpshooter leafhoppers
Xylella fastidiosa is a vector-borne xylem-limited bacterium of agricultural and economic importance, yet it remains to be demonstrated how this pathogen is inoculated into plants by insect vectors. Recent DC-EPG (Electrical Penetration Graph) research with the meadow spittlebug, Philaenus spumarius tentatively correlated bacterial inoculation with a non-stereotypical “spiking waveform” termed Xe; this behavior occurred within the first minutes from initial stylets contact with a xylem vessel. Here, using the Graphocephala atropunctata-grapevine-X. fastidiosa pathosystem, we conclusively demonstrate that the DC-EPG waveform Xe represents the vector probing behavior correlated with X. fastidiosa inoculation into a host plant, and successful systemic persistent pathogen infection. Our work supports the previous hypothesis that Xe represents an egestion behavior, with a mixture of xylem sap-bacterial cells propelled by the collapse of the cibarial diaphragm while the precibarial valve is fluttering, potentially to remove obstructions from the precibarium and its chemosensilla. The outward flow delivering the mixture sap-bacterial cells into the plant is permitted by the valve that flutters instead of sealing the food canal. The inoculation behavior Xe is more frequent in vectors harboring X. fastidiosa cells within the foregut, independent of the bacterial population size in insects.
期刊介绍:
Its scope covers all aspects of basic and applied research dealing with insects and more broadly with arthropods inhabiting wild, agricultural and/or urban habitats. The journal also considers research integrating various disciplines and issues within the broad field of entomology and ecology.
Entomologia Generalis publishes high quality research articles on advances in knowledge on the ecology and biology of arthropods, as well as on their importance for key ecosystems services, e.g. as biological control and pollination. The journal devotes special attention to contributions providing significant advances (i) on the fundamental knowledge and on sustainable control strategies of arthropod pests (including of stored products) and vectors of diseases, (ii) on the biology and ecology of beneficial arthropods, (iii) on the spread and impact of invasive pests, and (iv) on potential side effects of pest management methods.
Entomologia Generalis welcomes review articles on significant developments in the field of entomology. These are usually invited by the editorial board, but proposals may be sent to the Editor-in-Chief for preliminary assessment by the editorial board before formal submission to the journal. The journal also considers comments on papers published in Entomologia Generalis, as well as short notes on topics that are of broader interest.
