| description | Xylella fastidiosa (Xf ) is a vascular plant pathogen native to the Americas. In 2013, it
was first reported in Europe, implicated in a massive die-off of olive trees in Apulia, Italy. This
finding prompted mandatory surveys across Europe, successively revealing that the bacterium was
already established in some distant areas of the western Mediterranean. To date, the Balearic Islands
(Spain) hold the major known genetic diversity of Xf in Europe. Since October 2016, four sequence
types (ST) belonging to the subspecies fastidiosa (ST1), multiplex (ST7, ST81), and pauca (ST80) have
been identified infecting 28 host species, including grapevines, almond, olive, and fig trees. ST1
causes Pierce’s disease (PD) and together with ST81 are responsible for almond leaf scorch disease
(ALSD) in California, from where they were introduced into Mallorca in around 1993, very likely via
infected almond scions brought for grafting. To date, almond leaf scorch disease affects over 81% of
almond trees and Pierce’s disease is widespread in vineyards across Mallorca, although producing on
average little economic impact. In this perspective, we present and analyze a large Xf -hosts database
accumulated over four years of field surveys, laboratory sample analyses, and research to understand
the underlying causes of Xf emergence and spread among crops and wild plants in the Balearic
Islands. The impact of Xf on the landscape is discussed. |
