Citrus greening (aka Huanglongbing or HLB) is a major threat to the citrus industry worldwide. There is much work to be done to curb the effects of this disease, especially in the face of increased climate threats.

Slippery skin of onion, caused by Burkholderia gladioli pv. alliicola (Bga), is a globally reported disease with poorly understood virulence mechanisms. @sujan_pau et al. used genomics and reverse genetics to identify key virulence factors in Bga, regulated partly by quorum
