Dopamine and its receptor DcDop2 are involved in the coevolution between Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus and Diaphorina citri

Xiaoge Nian, Jiayun Li, Jilei Huang…·Songdou Zhang

This study shows CLas manipulates dopamine signaling via DcDop2 to enhance psyllid fecundity and CLas proliferation, revealing coevolution between the pathogen and insect host.

Adipokinetic hormone signaling mediates the enhanced fecundity of Diaphorina citri infected by 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus'

Jiayun Li, Paul Holford, G. A. C. Beattie…·Xiaoge Nian

This study identifies adipokinetic hormone signaling as a key mediator of increased fecundity in CLas-infected D. citri, revealing a mutualistic interaction between the bacterium and the insect.
