The three main molecular mechanisms driving symptom progression of Huanglongbing disease in citrus: (A) source-sink disruption due to starch accumulation in leaves, stimulated by upregulation of glucose-phosphate-transport2 (GPT) and the induction of genes involved in photosynthetic reactions in fruits; (B) non-beneficial modulation of jasmonic acid-salicylic crosstalk that is not correlated with the different pathogen concentration in leaf and fruit tissues; and (C) modulated expression of detoxifying proteins linked with different susceptibility of citrus genotypes. Red color means “upregulated,” green means “downregulated” while white means “not-regulated.” Genes not mentioned in the text were: NBS-LRR (nucleotide binding site leucine rich repeats), lox2, and lox3 (lipoxygenase2 and 3), GTS (glutathione-S-transferases).
