Citriculture is one of the most important agricultural activities in Brazil, where the State of São Paulo holds the position of the largest producer of sweet orange worldwide. Among a plethora of threats that hinders citrus production, citrus canker, caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Xanthomonas citri subp. citri (X. citri) is a non-treatable disease that causes significant economic l…
Citriculture is an important economic activity in the country, with Brazil being the largest orange producer in the world. This production is threaten by a severe plant disease, the asiatic citrus canker, caused by the Gram-negative bacteria Xanthomonas citri subsp. citric. This disease is responsible for great losses to citriculture and its control is necessary. The eradication strategy,…
Leaf-cutting ants (Atta and Acromyrmex) make up the largest group among the derived fungus-growing ants, being considered the most important herbivores in the Neotropics. They live in an obligatory mutualism with the fungus Leucoagaricus gongylophorus (Basidiomycota: Agaricales), providing fresh plant parts as substrate for it, which is their main food source. In turn, ants promote the fu…
