General Information: An obligately aerobic, NaCl-requiring, chemoheterotrophic Gram-negative bacterium. Parvularcula bermudensis was isolated from seawater collected from a depth of 10 meters at the Bermuda Atlantic Time Series station in the Sargasso Sea. This organism forms a new order within the alpha proteobacteria.
Subject: NC_012985:779279 Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus str. psy62, complete genome
Lineage: Liberibacter asiaticus; Liberibacter; Rhizobiaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus causes Huanglongbing (also called citrus greening disease) in citrus in Asia. This organism causes a lethal infection to the tree and is transmitted from tree to tree by the sap-sucking Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri. Once infected the citrus tree turns yellow (huanglongbing means yellow dragon disease) and the fruit remains green.
