ABSTRACT

Preparations are now underway for potential incursions of huanglongbing and its two known vectors, Kuwayama and erytreae del Guercio, into Australia. These preparations, particularly the development of an incursion management plan (IMP), involve extensive reviews of literature related to the origins of and huanglongbing, and of host records for the disease and its vectors. This paper briefly discusses issues and aspects of the IMP, including pre- and post-incursion management plans.

ORIGINS OF CITRUS ORIGIN AND SPREAD OF HUANGLONGBING

Beattie et al. (2008) recently hypothesised Beattie et al. (2008) recently summarised that the genus Citrus originated in Australia their views, repeated here, on the origins of and that it dispersed westward in equatorial HLB2. The accepted view, as expressed by currents, to Southeast Asia, when such Zhao (1981), da Graça (1991), Bové (2006), currents exited to the north of what is now and in many other publications, is that HLB Papua New Guinea, and on island terranes originated in China. It is based on three that moved 1000 kilometres eastward across assumptions: (1) that the disease was present the same region (Hall 1997, 2001, 2002). in China in the 1800s (Lin 1956); (2) that Some species may also have been dispersed Reinking (1919), Lee (1921), Tu (1932), and by birds and bats. These hypotheses are based some other authors in China before 1940, on current knowledge of plate tectonics and described symptoms of the disease; and (3) the origins of components of Australasia and that HLB evolved with Citrus. However, Asia (e.g., Veevers et al. 1991, Metcalfe 1998, presence of the disease in China in the 1800s Hall 1997, 2001, 2002, Hartley 2001a, b)1, was based on interviews with farmers and the morphology of Citrus and its relatives technicians between 1947 and 1955 (Lin 1956; as circumscribed by Walter Swingle (Swingle see also Lin and Lin 1990). Symptoms of and Reece 1967), recent re-classifications by maladies described by Reinking (1919) and David Mabberley (Mabberley 2004, Zhang Lee (1921) do not describe HLB, and there et al. 2008), and recent molecular studies is no evidence that HLB evolved with Citrus. (e.g., Samuel et al. 2001, Bayer et al. 2004, It is highly likely that the disease was not Muellner et al. 2007, Bayer et al. 2009). widespread in China before the 1940s and that Muellner et al.

Bayer et al. (2009) disease appears to have been made showed that the genus comprises two major by Chen Qibao in 1938 (Chen 1943, clades, an Australasian clade comprising Lin 1956), four years after Zhou considered by Swingle to be species Yuwen collected D. citri on citrus and of and Microcitrus in Papua New other hosts at Lingnan University in Guinea, Eremocitrus and Microcitrus in Guangzhou (see Hoffmann 1936); Australia, and Oxanthera in New Caledonia, • parasitoids were not associated with and an Asiatic clade comprising well-known these psyllid populations (Hoffmann commercial Citrus species and hybrids, and 1936); and species considered by Swingle to be species • Aubert (1990a) recorded information of Fortunella and Poncirus.

[Solanales: Solanaceae] and other solanaceous plants in New Zealand in association with the recently introduced potato/tomato psyllid Bactericera (=Paratrioza) cockerelli (Sulc) [Psyllidae], presumably from North and/or Central America: see http://www.biosecurity.govt.nz/pests-diseases/plants/potato-tomato-psyllid.htm.

Synonyms of V. lanceolata include Southeast Asia until after the mid 1940s; in Boscia undulata Thunb., Toddalia lanceolata Indonesia in 1948 (Aubert et al. 1985); in Lam, querimbensis Klotzsch and Vepris Taiwan about 1950 (Su and Huang 1990); undulata (Thunb.) Verdoorn and CA Smith in the Philippines in 1957 (Martinez and (see Mziray 1992). Z. capense is often cited Wallace 1967); in Thailand in the 1960s as Fagara capensis Thunb., and sometimes as (Schwarz et al. 1973a, b; Aubert 1990c); and F. capense. Non-native African hosts on which in Malaysia in the 1970s (Ko 1988, 1991, T. erytreae can complete its development in Lim et al. 1990).

It is, however, native to have been overlooked. These records suggest the Western Ghats of India and the northeast that symptoms resembling those of HLB in part of the Indian subcontinent through to Citrus were observed in the mid 1700s in China, and it has many synonyms (Molino the central provinces of India by Roghoji, 1994). There are no reports of D. citri feeding the Bhonsla Raja of Nagpur (Capoor 1963). or developing on it in Asia. The fact that V. Subsequently, relatively early records in north- lanceolata is the preferred native host of T. western and north-eastern India occurred in erytreae in Africa (Moran 1968) suggests that the 1800s and early 1900s (Bonavia 1888- it is the original host of both T. erytreae and 1890, Husain and Nath 1927, Pruthi and HLB. Mani 1945, Asana 1958, Capoor 1963, Fraser HLB was transmitted from V. lanceolata et al. 1966, Chadra et al. 1970). With the to or mandarin trees by T. erytreae in benefit of current knowledge, it is clear that one of the European colonies on the southeast the severe symptoms described by Husain coast of Africa and then taken to the Indian and Nath (1927) and Pruthi and Mani (1945) subcontinent in infected plants or budwood and attributed to D. citri were symptoms some 300-500 years ago. It was then acquired now known to be caused by 'Candidatus and spread by D. citri. Spread would also Liberibacter asiaticus'. Husain and Nath have occurred through marcotting and grafting, (1927), not Reinking (1919) or Lee (1921), and enhanced by changes in horticultural were therefore the first authors to describe practices that through increased use of symptoms of HLB. Damage caused by D. citri irrigation and fertilisers within monocultures is much more benign and does not lead to would have led to more abundant and frequent death of trees. growth flushes. The latter would have led We think HLB originated in Africa. to far higher populations of D. citri than T. erytreae, the vector of HLB in Africa, is would have occurred in the ’s original native to sub-Saharan Africa, and is the only environment. It seems the disease and D. species of Trioza that is known to feed and citri may have been introduced to China in develop on Rutaceae (Hollis 1984; Aubert the early 1930s, on plants, possibly a 1987b).

Zhejiang, did not mention the presence of D. citri or symptoms resembling HLB. ORIGINS OF D. CITRI Information about the two primary parasitoids of D. citri also suggests that the Modern psylloids, including the Diaphorinineae psyllid evolved in India. Both parasitoids were and Triozinae, probably evolved with first described from India, the ectoparasitoid the in Gondwana (Hollis 1985, Tamarixia radiata (Waterston) [Hymenoptera: 1987, White and Hodgkinson 1985). The Eulophidae] by Waterston (1922) and the Diaphorineae have an ecological preference for endoparasitoid Diaphorencyrtus aligarhensis dry climates (Hollis 1987). D. citri was first (Shafee, Alam and Agarwal) [Hymenoptera: recorded as a serious pest of citrus in India Encyrtidae] by Shafee et al. (1975). Most by Husain and Nath (1927) who, in describing records of T. radiata4 in Southeast Asia appear the damage it caused, were the first to to be related to intentional introductions (Chiu describe what are now known to be symptoms et al. 1988, Chien et al. 1988, Waterhouse of HLB.

All evidence supports the native to Taiwan or the Philippines, nor were view of Hollis (1987) who suggested that the any parasitoids found in association with D. psyllid evolved in India in association with a citri populations when the psyllid was first species of Murraya3. recorded in Guangzhou (Hoffmann 1936).
