Twelve leaf samples (three leaves from a branch per tree) were collected from four trees in greenhouse-grown healthy (GHH), in field-grown healthy (IFH), nutrient deficient (ND) and HLB early (non-symptomatic) of orange (Citrus sinensis, Valencia) and grapefruit (Citrus paradasi, Rio red) from Weslaco, Texas. Leaf samples were collected in Ziploc bags and immediately brought to laboratory for RS. After RS, the leaf samples were stored in −80 °C for DNA isolation. Four orange trees of IFH surrounded by CLas positive oranges trees were selected to monitor the growth of CLas over time. Three leaves were collected from the same branch of each tree to quantify CLas titer using qPCR and RS for every three months over 6 months, starting in January 2019.
