Bactericera maculipennis (Hemiptera: Triozidae) is a vector of "Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum" to species within the Convolvulaceae (Solanales).
Bactericera maculipennis (Crawford) and Bactericera cockerelli (Šulc) (Hemiptera: Triozidae) share hosts within the Solanaceae and Convolvulaceae (Solanales), and both are associated with "Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum" (Lso). Lso, transmitted by B. cockerelli, causes diseases in solanaceous crops including zebra chip disease of potato. Up to 50% of B. maculipennis adults also harbor Lso, but transmission of Lso to plants by this psyllid has not been confirmed yet. The only documented field host of B. maculipennis in the Pacific Northwest is Convolvulus arvensis L. (Convolvulaceae) but diagnostic methods fail to detect Lso in leaves of this plant. It is therefore unclear how Lso persists within B. maculipennis populations. We surveyed species of Convolvulaceae and Solanaceae for B. maculipennis and report a widespread association between B. maculipennis and Lso throughout the western United States. Diagnostic polymerase chain reaction failed to detect Lso from leaves of C. arvensis yet readily detected Lso from stems where B. maculipennis nymphs tend to feed. Bactericera maculipennis transmitted Lso to species of Convolvulaceae in greenhouse experiments, confirming vector competency. We report high rates of Lso infection in populations of both B. maculipennis and B. cockerelli occurring on C. arvensis, but occurrence of B. cockerelli on C. arvensis was limited to autumn months only and with very low populations. Results suggest C. arvensis is a non-crop reservoir of Lso but do not suggest that B. maculipennis is a direct threat to solanaceous crops or that C. arvensis is a major source of Lso-infected B. cockerelli colonizing potato fields.
