Article Synopsis
- The study explored the genetic diversity of Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) isolates in Montenegro and Croatia, focusing on the northernmost citrus-growing regions along the Eastern Adriatic coast.
- Fifteen CTV genomes were reconstructed through high-throughput sequencing, uncovering known strains along with new isolates and a unique MNE cluster exclusively from Montenegro.
- The research revealed multiple recombination events among the virus strains, indicating greater CTV diversity in Europe than previously recognized and suggesting the need for updated management strategies.
Population dynamics of the Mediterranean fruit fly was studied along Montenegro seacoast. Tephri traps baited with 3 component female-biased attractants were used in 11 different localities to monitor the fruit fly population in commercial citrus orchards, mixed-fruit orchards, and in backyards. From 2008-2010, the earliest captures were recorded no earlier than July.
