Budding Method Affects Transmission of Xylella fastidiosa in Plum

Detection of Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al. by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay indicated that plums ( Prunus hybrids) had higher absorbance values than peaches [ Prunus persica (L.) Batsch]. The slip-budded trees had lower readings than those that were chip budded; however, the scion × method int...

More Information
Summary:Detection of Xylella fastidiosa Wells et al. by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay indicated that plums ( Prunus hybrids) had higher absorbance values than peaches [ Prunus persica (L.) Batsch]. The slip-budded trees had lower readings than those that were chip budded; however, the scion × method interaction was significant. Further comparison of slip vs. chip budding indicated that the lower absorbance value of slip budding occurred in plums only; there was no difference between budding methods in peach.
