Abstract:
:'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' ('Ca. L. asiaticus'), the suspected causative agent of citrus greening disease, is one of many phloem-restricted plant pathogens that have not been isolated and grown in an axenic culture. In this study, infected Asian citrus psyllids were used to prepare a host-free source of 'Ca. L. asiaticus'. Host-free mixed microbial cultures of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' were grown in the presence of various antibiotic treatments to alter the composition of the microbial communities. Our hypothesis was that the presence of selected antibiotics would enhance or reduce the presence of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' in a host-free culture composed of a mixed bacterial population through changes in the microbial community structure. We determined how 'Ca. L. asiaticus' growth changed with the various treatments. Treatment with vancomycin (50 μg/mL), streptomycin (0.02 μg/mL), or polymyxin B (4 μg/mL) was associated with an increased abundance of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' of 7.35 ± 0.27, 5.56 ± 0.15, or 4.54 ± 0.83 fold, respectively, compared to untreated mixed microbial cultures, while treatment with 100 μg/mL vancomycin; 0.5, 1, or 2 μg/mL streptomycin; or 0.5 μg/mL of polymyxin B was associated with reduced growth. In addition, the growth of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' was associated with the microbial community composition of the mixed microbial cultures. A positive relationship between the presence of the Pseudomonadaceae family and 'Ca. L. asiaticus' growth was observed, while the presence of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' was below the detection limit in cultures that displayed high abundances of Bacillus cereus. Our findings offer strategies for developing effective axenic culture conditions and suggest that enrichment of the Bacillaceae family could serve as a paratransgenic approach to controlling citrus greening disease.
