Location: Subtropical Plant Pathology Research
Project Number: 6034-22000-042-003-R
Project Type: Reimbursable Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Feb 1, 2016
End Date: Jan 31, 2020
Objective:
We will re-define culture medium based on components of all the environments where Las grown naturally, including phloem fluid, psyllid hemolymph, and honeydew.
Approach:
By participating in the concerted, parallel and coordinated efforts towards obtaining viable Las cultures, and using both traditional culturing and the Torrey Pines Institute for Molecular Studies (TPIMS) chemical library to enhance growth of Las.
