California Dept. of Farm and Agriculture comments on Biocontrol

. . .And so what I work on is tamarixia Radiata which is the biocontrol agent for Asian citrus psyllid it’s a very invasive insect that actually comes from Pakistan despite the Asia in its name, and its actual host is curry plants despite the citrus in its name. It was transported into Asia by globalism and transportation- where it hosts switched onto citrus. It became the vector for Huanglongbing. Which is a citrus greening disease; just like humans have circulatory systems plants also do."
