| Popis: | Citrus greening disease is a major cause of crop and tree loss in many parts of Asia and Africa. Before it was identified as one disease, it became known by various names: yellow shoot (huanglungbin) in China; likubin (decline) in Taiwan; dieback in India; leaf mottle in the Philippines; vein phloem de generation in Indonesia; and yellow branch, blotchy-mottle, or greening in South Africa. As it became clear that all these were similar diseases the name "greening" was widely adopted. Many reviews of citrus greening have appeared, but with few exceptions (9,186), are either brief, restricted to one country, or by now out of date. This review aims to present an overview of greening worldwide. There is no shortage of literature; 6take (186) lists 556 papers in his 1990 bibliography, and the present author found a further 86, although many do not advance our understanding of the disease. |
