  "abstract": "<p>The meadow spittlebug Philaenus spumarius (L.) has been identified as vector of Xylella fastidiosa<br>\nsubsp. pauca strain CoDiRO infecting several host plants in Apulia (Southern Italy), and causing a<br>\nmajor bacterial disease on olive trees. Evidences of differential olive cultivar susceptibility to the<br>\nbacterial infections were obtained from phenotypic characterization and molecular investigations.<br>\nA higher bacterial population (up to 100 times) was consistently detected in the trees of the most<br>\nsusceptible cultivars (i.e. Ogliarola and Cellina di Nard&ograve;, showing severe symptoms), compared to<br>\nthe trees of the cultivar Leccino showing milder symptoms and erratic distribution of the<br>\nbacterium within the canopy. In order to determine the epidemiological impact of olive trees<br>\nharboring low bacterial population, transmission experiments were set under semi-field<br>\nconditions, by caging Xf-free adults of P. spumarius on branches of field-infected trees of the<br>\nabovementioned cultivars.</p>",
