Citrus greening affects roots before leaves

Although citrus greening enters trees through their leaves, University of Florida researchers have discovered that the deadly disease attacks roots long before the leaves show signs of damage -- a finding that may help growers better care for trees while scientists work to find a cure.

"The role of root infection by insect-carried bacterial pathogens has been greatly underestimated," said Evan Johnson, a research assistant scientist with UF's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences.

Hundreds of researchers throughout the world are rushing to find a viable treatment for citrus greening, which is devastating Florida's $9 billion citrus industry and has affected citrus production throughout North America.

Johnson was the lead author of a scientific paper outlining the research published in the April issue of the journal Plant Pathology. He and his fellow team members -- Jian Wu, a graduate student in soil and water science, researcher Diane Bright and Jim Graham, a professor of soil microbiology -- are based at the UF/IFAS Citrus Research and Education Center in Lake Alfred.

Citrus greening first enters the tree via a tiny insect, the Asian citrus psyllid, which sucks on leaf sap and leaves behind bacteria that spread through the tree. Johnson said the bacteria travel quickly to the roots, where they replicate, damage the root system and spread to the rest of the host tree's canopy. The disease starves the tree of nutrients, leaving fruits that are green and misshapen, unsuitable for sale as fresh fruit or juice. Most infected trees die within a few years.

Sell small onion in June to get better prices: TNAU to farmers

COIMBATORE: As prices of small onion are expected to increase substantially in June, the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University (TNAU) has advised farmers to store and sell their crop next month. 

An econometric analysis by TNAU's Agri Marketing Intelligence and Business Promotion Centre in the Dindigul market on prices during the last 15 years revealed that they would rule around Rs 2,300 to Rs 2,500 per quintal at farm level during June. 

The expected export demand will also keep the prices higher, which would be more than the cost of storage and loss, including interest charges, it said. 

Hence, farmers could store and sell onion to get higher returns, it added. 
At present, farm gate prices hover around Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,000 per quintal and there are chances of exports picking up next month, TNAU said. 

Onion is grown in 0.38 lakh hectares in Tamil Nadu, with production standing at 4.29 lakh tonnes in 2012-13. 

This was 1.61 per cent higher in area and 22.8 per cent lesser in production compared to last year, which stood at 0.37 lakh hectares and 5.56 lakh tonnes, it said.
