AB  - “Flavescence dorée” (FD) is a European quarantine disease affecting grapevines,
associated with the “flavescence dorée” phytoplasma and transmitted by
the North American leafhopper, Scaphoideus titanus. This pathogen has a
significant impact on the major viticultural areas across Europe, as well as all
wine-producing regions in Serbia. The occurrence of S. titanus was initially
recorded in Serbian vineyards in 2002 (Magud and Toševski, 2004). However,
the high population density observed at that time suggests that the vector’s
presence likely dates back to the 1990s (Ivo Toševski, unpublished data).
Despite the extensive measures to contain the pathogen, the encompassing
disease and vector surveillance, the mandatory insecticidal treatments against
S. titanus, and the utilization of certified phytoplasma-free planting material,
the disease continues to spread. Presently, FD affects vineyards in all districts of
Serbia (Krstić et al., 2022). A recent two-year survey (2022-2023) on S. titanus
distribution in both wild and cultivated areas within vineyard ecosystems
revealed widespread prevalence of the vector across all grapevine-growing
regions in Serbia. High population densities were observed in districts where
Map-FD3 genotypes are common. These include grape-producing regions all
over Serbia where the autochthonous M51 genotype is dominant, hosted by
grapevine, along with reservoir plants Clematis vitalba and Ailanthus altissima.
Additionally, substantial S. titanus populations were registered in northern
Serbia, where multiple outbreaks of the M12 genotype occurred, and central
Serbia, where five new genotypes (M150-M154) were detected in grapevines,
indicating a high endemic potential for new outbreaks in these regions. Finally,
significant populations of the insect vector were discovered in riparian habitats
near rivers in Podunavlje and Mačva, where two “flavescence dorée” endemic genotypes of the Map-FD2 (M89 and M148) were found in grapevines (Krstić
et al., 2022). The current phytosanitary situation in Serbian vineyards provides
evidence that, despite measures implemented over the past two decades, there
has been no substantial reduction in the population density and spread of S.
titanus. Due to the high complexity of the “flavescence dorée” epidemiological
cycle caused by natural reservoir plants and native or introduced insect vectors,
linking natural habitats with adjacent vineyard ecosystems, managing ongoing
epidemics and preventing new outbreaks in the Balkans remains a challenge.

AB  - “Flavescence dorée” (FD) outbreaks in Serbian vineyards first emerged in the
early 2000s and were directly correlated with dense populations of the North
American insect vector Scaphoideus titanus. The FD phytoplasma associated
with the disease was first treated as alien and introduced, like it happens for
its insect vector. However, the genetic peculiarities of FD phytoplasma strains
from Serbia, as well as their occurrence in native alder trees in riparian areas
and clematis plants in vineyard surroundings and in natural habitats, proved
otherwise. Molecular data on the ecological properties of epidemiological
cycles driving the epidemic outbreaks of FD in Serbia today indicated the
importance of alders as reservoir plants for the epidemics (Krstić et al., 2022).
Riparian habitats hosting alder trees, alongside wild Vitis, Salix sp., clematis,
tree of heaven, and other FD phytoplasmas reservoir plants, were screened for
native leafhopper vectors as well as for Orientus ishidae, a newly established
vector of Asian origin in Serbia (Cvrković et al., 2021). Leafhopper Allygus
modestus and A. mixtus were commonly found in association with alders
in many sites, with the former being the dominant species. An established
population of O. ishidae feeding on alders was found in a single location of
riparian habitat in eastern Serbia. Among the analyzed leafhopper specimens,
using epidemiologically informative map gene typing, nearly all A. modestus
individuals were found carrying FD or -related phytoplasmas, while nearly
50% of O. ishidae were found infected at the same location. However,
A. modestus specimens had a lower phytoplasma load (Cq > 25) than O. ishidae
(Cq < 20 in 50% of infected individuals), even though they were collected in
the same period of the year. When comparing the map genotypes carried
by each of the putative vector species, A. modestus most often carried AldY genotypes, while O. ishidae was dominantly found harboring FD phytoplasma
genotypes of both Map-FD1 and FD2 clusters. The experimental verification
of the transmission capability and role in FD phytoplasma epidemiology for
each of the leafhopper species is under study.

AB  - Grapevine Yellows (GY) are economically important diseases associated to phytoplasmas (genus ‘Candidatus
Phytoplasma’), uncultivable bacteria from the class Mollicutes. In Euro-mediterranean region, GY are mainly
attributed to phytoplasmas belonging to ribosomal 16SrXII-A subgroup ('Ca. P. solani'; Bois Noir phytoplasma;
BNp) and 16SrV group (flavescence dorée phytoplasma; FDp), with the latter one being a quarantine pathogen
(Plavec et al. 2015, Quaglino et al. 2013). Although symptomatology can be similar, epidemiology of FDp and
BNp is very different as they are transmitted by different insect vectors and could have different alternative
hosts. In Croatia, GY diseases have been continuously monitored since 1997 with FDp appearing only in 2009
(Šeruga Musić et al. 2011). While BNp is more diverse and widespread, FDp belonging to 3 map phylogenetic
clusters are differently distributed throughout regions. Istria is heavily affected with FDp since 2014 with only
one genotype (mapFD2/M54) being attributed to great losses (Plavec et al. 2019). On the contrary, information
on BNp diversity is scarce with only couple of genotypes detected so far (Plavec et al, manuscript in
preparation). Therefore, the aim of this case study was to assess the diversity of BNp genotypes in a small
selected area of Istria, in order to draw attention to the presence and importance of BNp as GY agent in this
important Croatian viticultural region.

AB  - Euscelis incisus is polyphagous leafhopper that is widely distributed and abundant in diverse agroecosystems. Two generations per year allows this species to come into contact with a plethora of different phytoplasmas. We first investigated the interactions of E. incisus with phytoplasmas in different ecosystems as a bioindicator of phytoplasma diversity. Among the 510 analyzed E. incisus specimens collected from eight localities in Serbia, 53 (10%) tested positive for diverse ‘Ca. Phytoplasma’ taxa. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis and sequence comparison based on the F2nR2 fragment of the 16S rRNA gene revealed the presence of six 16S phytoplasma ribosomal groups and eight subgroups in E. incisus (16SrI-R, 16SrI-F, 16SrII-E, 16SrIII-B, 16SrIX-C, 16SrIX-E, 16SrXI-G and 16SrXII-A). The most prevalent was the 16SrXII-A phytoplasma group, represented by two multilocus stolbur phytoplasma genotypes: STOLg and Rqg31g. While the 16SrXII-A phytoplasmas were identical to the previously recorded isolates from Serbia, the 16SrI-F and 16SrI-R subgroups closely related to the previously documented 16SrI-B and 16SrI-C subgroups were recorded for the first time in Serbia. In addition, records of the 16SrIX and 16SrXI groups represent the first findings of these phytoplasma groups in Serbia. Transmission trials of ‘Ca. P. solani’ were performed with naturally infected E. incisus adults. The leafhoppers successfully transmitted stolbur phytoplasma to exposed Catharanthus roseus plants, indicating their role as a natural vector.

AB  - Trehalose and its precursor, trehalose 6-phosphate (T6P), are essential regulators of plant response to abiotic and biotic stress. Here we used the specific host-insect interaction between Linaria vulgaris (Plantaginaceae) and stem-galling weevil, Rhinusa pilosa (Mecinini, Curculionidae) with the aim to distinguish carbohydrate allocation patterns in response to herbivory, gall formation (G1, 24 h after oviposition), and gall development (G2, 7 days after oviposition) under controlled conditions. The hypothesis is that herbivory and galling induce distinct responses in both leaves and stems, and that shifts in carbon allocations are regulated by signaling sugars. Systemic response to herbivory was accumulation of T6P and maltose. The main feature of G1 in the stems was accumulation of trehalose, accompanied by increased T6P, turanose and glucose content, oppositely to the leaves. In G2, galls had 3-folds higher weight than controls, with further accumulation of fructose, glucose, turanose, and total water-insoluble carbohydrates (TIC), while the sucrose/hexose ratio decreased. Analysis of fast chlorophyll fluorescence kinetic (OJIP) transients in G2 showed a slight decrease in quantum yield of electron transport flux from Q(A) to Q(B), and towards photosystem I acceptor side, correlated with the decreased content of photosynthetic pigments and hexoses accumulation. Redistribution of photosynthates, and accumulation of T6P were induced in response to herbivory, indicating its signaling role. The results support the hypothesis that R. pilosa can induce plant reprogramming towards the accumulation of beneficial carbohydrates in developing gall by mechanisms which include both T6P and trehalose.

AB  - Bois noir (BN), a grapevine yellows disease induced by Candidatus Phytoplasma solani', is spreading and diversifying in several wine-producing regions of Europe, causing increased yield losses and economic concerns. The planthopper Hyalesthes obsoletus (Hemiptera: Cixiidae) is a major vector of the pathogen that causes BN disease in grapevine. Recent studies suggest that epidemiology of BN is affected by the interaction of specific host races of H. obsoletus with weedy host plants that serve as reservoirs for the pathogen. Since BN is common in grape-growing regions of Serbia, a survey was conducted during 2015-2016 to evaluate the host-plant association and vector role of H. obsoletus in central and eastern regions. We tested populations of H. obsoletus associated with Convolvulus arvensis (field bindweed) a known host for the vector and pathogen and Crepis foetida (stinking hawk's-beard) a newly identified host in southeastern Europe. Molecular phylogenetic analyses of H. obsoletus collected from C. arvensis and C. foetida using the mtDNA COI marker determined that the two populations had a genetic divergence of 1.4%. Transmission trials confirmed the vector role of C. arvensis-associated H. obsoletus and identified C. foetida-associated populations as a new and efficient host-specialized vector of BN. Each of the two host-specialized vector populations transmitted Ca. P. solani' to its original host (C. arvensis or C. foetida) and to grapevine cv. Chardonnay. Multilocus genotyping of the transmitted phytoplasma isolates based on tuf/stamp/vmp1 Ca. P. solani'-specific loci indicated pathogen segregation according to the host-plant association of the vector. All isolates transmitted by C. foetida-associated H. obsoletus were of the STOL genotype (tuf-b/STOL/V2-TA), while the C. arvensis-associated population transmitted several genotypes: tuf-b/Rqg50/V4, tuf-b/Rqg50/V14, tuf-b/Rqg31/V14 and tuf-b/Vv24/V14. This study provides evidence of a new independent BN epidemiological cycle of tuf-b Ca. P. solani' strain in the Balkan region, sourced by C. foetida and transmitted by its associated H. obsoletus population.

AB  - The stolbur phytoplasma vector Hyalesthes obsoletus is generally considered as a polyphagous species associated with numerous wild and cultivated plants. However, recent research in southeastern Europe, the distribution centre of H. obsoletus and the area of most stolbur-inflicted crop diseases, points toward specific host-plant associations of the vector, indicating specific vector-based transmission routes. Here, we study the specificity of populations associated with four host-plants using mitochondrial and nuclear genetic markers, and we evaluate the evolution of host-shifts in H. obsoletus. Host-plant use was confirmed for Convolvulus arvensis, Urtica dioica, Vitex agnus-castus and Crepis foetida. Mitochondrial genetic analysis showed sympatric occurrence of three phylogenetic lineages that were ecologically delineated by host-plant preference, but were morphologically inseparable. Nuclear data supported the existence of three genetic groups (Evanno's Delta K(3) = 803.72) with average genetic membership probabilities  gt  90%. While populations associated with C. arvensis and U. dioica form a homogenous group, populations affiliated with V. agnus-castus and C. foetida constitute two independent plant-associated lineages. The geographical signal permeating the surveyed populations indicated complex diversification processes associated with host-plant selection and likely derived from post-glacial refugia in the eastern Mediterranean. This study provides evidence for cryptic species diversification within H. obsoletus sensu lato: i) consistent mitochondrial differentiation (1.1-1.5%) among host-associated populations in syntopy and in geographically distant areas, ii) nuclear genetic variance supporting mitochondrial data, and iii) average mitochondrial genetic distances among host-associated meta-populations are comparable to the most closely related, morphologically distinguishable species, i.e., Hyalesthes thracicus (2.1-3.3%).

AB  - The European lantern fly, Dictyophara europaea, is an alternative vector of the Flavescence doree phytoplasma (FDp) disease of grapevine in European vineyards, enabling infection initiation from wild reservoir compartment (Clematis vitalba). Heretofore recorded rate of D. europaea FDp-infection has been very low (3%), making it less epidemiologically significant than would be expected based on reservoir plant infection rate (30%). In this study we present findings on a heavily FDp-infected D. europaea population ( gt 60%), on the natural Wolbachia infection of populations with low FDp-infection rates (DeWo+) and on Wolbachia absence in highly FDp-infected population (DeWo-). We examine several possible causes underlying the differences in vector infection rates: (a) population genetic characteristics of D. europaea and correlation with Wolbachia strain wEur natural infections, (b) Wolbachia effects on fitness components of DeWo+ laboratory colony and (c) rate of reservoir plant FDp-infection and differences in FDp genotypes harboured by low and highly infected vector populations. The vector genetic diversity level was found to be lower in DeWo+ than in uninfected individuals and to exhibit a different evolution of fixed haplotypes. All DeWo+ populations were infected with the same strain of wEur. The FDp was found to be genetically diversified (five genotypes) but had no relation to infection rates. We did not find evidence of fitness upgrades with regard to Wolbachia infection status. Although more experimentation is needed, it seems that Wolbachia confers protection against FDp or is in competition with FDp according to the observed correlations: low FDp-infected vector populations are infected with Wolbachia and vice versa.

AB  - Linaria vulgaris, common or yellow toadflax, and Linaria dalmatica, Dalmatian toadflax (Plantaginaceae), are Eurasian perennial forbs invasive throughout temperate North America. These Linaria species have been the targets of classical biological control programmes in Canada and the USA since the 1960s. The first effective toadflax biological control agent, the stem-mining weevil Mecinus janthinus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) was introduced from Europe in the 1990s. This weevil has become established on L. dalmatica and L. vulgaris in both countries, although it has shown greater success in controlling the former toadflax species. Genetic and ecological studies of native range M. janthinus populations revealed that weevils previously identified as a single species in fact include two cryptic species, now recognised as M. janthinus, associated with yellow toadflax, and the recently confirmed species Mecinus janthiniformis, associated with Dalmatian toadflax. The results of a comprehensive study characterising haplotype identities, distributions and frequencies within M. janthinus s.l. native range source populations were compared to those populations currently established in the USA and Canada. The presence of both Mecinus species in North America was confirmed, and revealed with a few exceptions a high and consistent level of host fidelity throughout the adopted and native ranges. Genetic analysis based on mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit II gene (mtCOII) defined the origin and records the subsequent North American establishment, by haplotype, of the European founder populations of M. janthinus (northern Switzerland and southern Germany) and M. janthiniformis (southern Macedonia), and provided population genetic indices for the studied populations. This analysis together with existing North American shipment receipt, release and rearing records elucidates probable redistribution routes and sources of both weevil species from initially released and established adopted range populations.

The results of a comprehensive study characterising haplotype identities, distributions and frequencies within M. janthinus s.l. native range source populations were compared to those populations currently established in the USA and Canada. The presence of both Mecinus species in North America was confirmed, and revealed with a few exceptions a high and consistent level of host fidelity throughout the adopted and native ranges. Genetic analysis based on mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit II gene (mtCOII) defined the origin and records the subsequent North American establishment, by haplotype, of the European founder populations of M. janthinus (northern Switzerland and southern Germany) and M. janthiniformis (southern Macedonia), and provided population genetic indices for the studied populations. This analysis together with existing North American shipment receipt, release and rearing records elucidates probable redistribution routes and sources of both weevil species from initially released and established adopted range populations.",

AB  - Mitochondria play a key role in ageing. The pursuit of genes that regulate variation in life span and ageing have shown that several nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes are important. However, the role of mitochondrial encoded genes (mtDNA) is more controversial and our appreciation of the role of mtDNA for the evolution of life span is limited. We use replicated lines of seed beetles that have been artificially selected for long or short life for  gt 190 generations, now showing dramatic phenotypic differences, to test for a possible role of mtDNA in the divergent evolution of ageing and life span. We show that these divergent selection regimes led to the evolution of significantly different mtDNA haplotype frequencies. Selection for a long life and late reproduction generated positive selection for one specific haplotype, which was fixed in most such lines. In contrast, selection for reproduction early in life led to both positive selection as well as negative frequency-dependent selection on two different haplotypes, which were both present in all such lines. Our findings suggest that the evolution of life span was in part mediated by mtDNA, providing support for the emerging general tenet that adaptive evolution of life-history syndromes may involve mtDNA.

AB  - Cercospora leaf spot (CLS) caused by Cercospora beticola occurs annually in Serbia causing severe yield losses of sugar beet, which requires intensive use of fungicides. In recent years we have observed unsatisfactory control of CLS originating from northwestern Serbia. Frequency of C. beticola populations resistant to Quinone outside inhibitors (QoI) was 81% (51/63 isolates), 98% (62/63) to sterol-demethylation inbibitors (DMI) and 54% (34/63) to methyl-2-benzimidazole carbamate fungicides (MBC). The genetic basis underlying the resistance was tested by characterizing the cob, CYP51 and -tubulin genes, associated with resistance to QoI, DMI and MBC fungicides, respectively. Isolates that were resistant to QoI fungicides had the G143A mutation in the cob gene. Characterization of the CYP51 gene revealed seven diverse haplotypes; however, no correlation with sensitivity or resistance to DMI fungicides could be identified. Resistance to MBC fungicides was associated with the presence of the E198A mutation in the -tubulin gene of all resistant isolates. From a total of 63 isolates originating from sugar beet fields of northwestern Serbia, 62 isolates showed resistance to multiple modes of action. Three multi-resistant phenotypes were identified: MR1 (N = 29) - resistant to QoI and DMI fungicides (QoI-R and DMI-R) but sensitive to MBC fungicides (MBC-S); MR2 (N = 11, QoI-S, DMI-R and MBC-R); and MR3 (N = 22), resistant to all three groups of fungicides (QoI-R, DMI-R and MBC-R). This is the first report of C. beticola resistance to QoI fungicides in Serbia. This study revealed development of multi-resistance of C. beticola isolates to MBC, DMI and QoI fungicides, which represents the first record of this phenomenon in C. beticola populations.

AB  - Coal and lignite play a major energy supply role in many European countries, including Bosnia and Herzegovina. Yet mining activities are a heavy source of ecosystem contamination, posing significant environmental threats. The primary goal of this study was to isolate and identify autochthonous lignite mine spoil bacteria and evaluate their potential in bioremediation of these polluted soils. Two Bacillus species, Bacillus simplex and a Bacillus cereus group member, were identified using conventional, molecular, and bioinformatics approaches. This represents, to our knowledge, the first microbial characterization of mine overburden in Bosnia and Herzegovina. A co-inoculum of autochthonous bacterial populations was used to treat unvegetated as well as oat- and lettuce-vegetated lignite overburden samples. Our results illustrate the potential of recovered native species to enrich soil fertility and productivity through plant growth promotion.

AB  - Genotyping of 2 well-known weevil species from the genus Ceutorhynchus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) distributed in west Palearctic, C. erysimi and C. contractus, revealed phenotype versus genotype inconsistencies in a set of 56 specimens (25 C. erysimi and 31 C. contractus) collected from 25 locations in Serbia and Montenegro. An analysis of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene (COI), widely used as a barcoding region, and a nuclear gene, elongation factor-1 alpha (EF-1 alpha), revealed stable genetic divergence among these species. The average uncorrected pairwise distances for the COI and EF-1 alpha genes were 3.8%, and 1.3%, respectively, indicating 2 genetically well-segregated species. However, the genetic data were not congruent with the phenotypic characteristics of the studied specimens. In the first place, C. erysimi genotypes were attached to specimens with phenotypic characteristics of C. contractus. Species-specific PCR-RFLP assays for the barcoding gene COIwere applied for themolecular identification of 101 additional specimens of both morphospecies (33 C. erysimi and 68 C. contractus) and were found to confirm this incongruity. The discrepancy between the genetic and morphological data raises the question of the accuracy of using a barcoding approach, as it may result in misleading conclusions about the taxonomic position of the studied organism. Additionally, the typological species concept shows considerable weakness when genetic data are not supported with phenotypic characteristics as in case of asymmetric introgression, which may cause certain problems, especially in applied studies such as biological control programs in which the biological properties of the studied organisms are the main focus.

AB  - Rhinusa pilosa (Gyllenhal) is a highly specific weevil that induces stem galls on the common toadflax Linaria vulgaris Mill. females oviposit the eggs near the apex of a growing shoot. The act of oviposition is accompanied by secretion of an ovipositional fluid, which is considered to be cecidogen, directly involved in gall induction. The remains of cecidogenic fluid were collected from the surface of the oviposition point on the stem. We performed a comparative analysis of the phenolics extracted from cecidogen, the stem and galls of L. vulgaris and adult and larva of R. pilosa by HPLC-DAD. One compound with A (max) at 273, 332 nm (R (t) 30.65 min) was exclusively found in the methanol extract of cecidogen. To further characterize the cecidogen and stem phenolic profiles, we used UHPLC coupled with an OrbiTrap mass analyzer. Among 49 phenolic compounds extracted from both the ovipositional fluid and the plant, protocatechuic acid and two phenolic glycosides were exclusively found in cecidogen: diosmetin-O-acetylrutinoside and an unidentified compound. The unknown compound produced an MS2 base peak at 387 and 327 and 267 m/z base peaks at MS3 and MS4 fragmentation, respectively, and had the molecular formula C32H31O18. The plausible role of phenolic compounds in the induction of gall formation on L. vulgaris is discussed.

AB  - A progressive spread of stolbur-associated symptoms observed in potato fields in Serbia over the past few years initiated the study on disease epidemiology and transmission pathways performed during 2013 and 2014. Inspection of potato fields on 12 localities in northern Serbia revealed high incidence (60 % of symptomatic plants) and wide dispersal (100 % of inspected localities) of 'Candidatus Phytoplasma solani'. A qualitative analysis of Auchenorrhyncha fauna in affected potato fields identified 16 species, however only Hyalesthes obsoletus, Reptalus panzeri and R. quinquecostatus tested positive for 'Ca. P. solani'. Multilocus typing of strains associated with field collected potato plants and insects had been performed to identify the propagation scenario underlying the threatening epidemics. Combined analyses of the tuf, stamp and vmp1 genes detected ten genotypes, seven of which were shared by the potato plants and insects, confirming their interaction, with no clear species-specific association of certain 'Ca. P. solani' genotypes with plausible insect vectors. Semi- field experiments with naturally 'Ca. P. solani'-infected H. obsoletus and R. panzeri confirmed the ability of both species to successfully transmit the pathogen to potato plants and induce symptoms characteristic of stolbur disease. The third putative vector R. quinquecostatus shared genotypes of 'Ca. P. solani' with potato plants and other two cixiids, and though not tested in this study should not be ruled out as a potential vector. Our study revealed rather complex epidemiology of potato stolbur in Serbia involving several possible routes of horizontal transmission and provided experimental evidence for two natural planthopper vectors.

AB  - Epidemiological aspects and transmission routes of bois noir (BN), a grapevine yellows disease induced by Candidatus Phytoplasma solani', have been exhaustively studied in the affected vineyards of continental Europe but not in the Mediterranean coastal zone. Because Ca. Phytoplasma solani' and its principal vector Hyalesthes obsoletus presumably originate from the Mediterranean, gaining knowledge of the epidemiological peculiarities of the disease in this area is essential for understanding its global spread and diversification, as well as for designing local management strategies. In this study, molecular epidemiology was applied to trace transmission pathways of Ca. Phytoplasma solani' in the Mediterranean vineyards of Montenegro, using multilocus sequence typing of tuf, vmp1 and stamp genes of the isolates associated with various hosts. Thus, Ca. Phytoplasma solani' was tracked from a tentative reservoir plant (inoculum source) through an associated vector population to the infected grapevine. Three pathways of transmission were documented, originating from Urtica dioica, Convolvulus arvensis and Vitex agnus-castus; however, only the route originating from U.dioica was direct, whereas the latter two were overlapping and could be intermixed. Vitex agnus-castus is a natural source of Ca. Phytoplasma solani', representing an important link in disease epidemiology in the Mediterranean and a possible origin of several genotypes occurring in central Europe. Experimental confirmation of the role of Vitex-associated H.obsoletus in BN transmission in Montenegrin vineyards indicates its tentative role as a vector in the wide area of the Mediterranean, where some of the major wine-producing regions are located.

AB  - The European lantern fly Dictyophara europaea (Linnaeus, 1767), is a polyphagous dictyopharid planthopper of Auchenorrhyncha commonly found throughout the Palaearctic. Despite abundant data on its distribution range and reports on its role in the epidemiology of plant-pathogenic phytoplasmas (Flavescence dore, FD-C), literature regarding the biology and host plants of this species is scarce. Therefore, the aims of our study were to investigate the seasonal occurrence, host plant associations, oviposition behaviour and immature stages of this widespread planthopper of economic importance. We performed a 3-year field study to observe the spatiotemporal distribution and feeding sources of D. europaea. The insects's reproductive strategy, nymphal molting and behaviour were observed under semi-field cage conditions. Measurement of the nymphal vertex length was used to determine the number of instars, and the combination of these data with body length, number of pronotal rows of sensory pits and body colour pattern enabled the discrimination of each instar. We provide data showing that D. europaea has five instars with one generation per year and that it overwinters in the egg stage. Furthermore, our study confirmed highly polyphagous feeding nature of D. europaea, for all instars and adults, as well as adult horizontal movement during the vegetation growing season to the temporarily preferred feeding plants where they aggregate during dry season. We found D. europaea adult aggregation in late summer on Clematis vitalba L. (Ranunculaceae), a reservoir plant of FD-C phytoplasma strain; however, this appears to be a consequence of forced migration due to drying of herbaceous vegetation rather than to a high preference of C. vitalba as a feeding plant. Detailed oviposition behaviour and a summary of the key discriminatory characteristics of the five instars are provided. Emphasis is placed on the economic importance of D. europaea because of its involvement in epidemiological cycles of phytoplasma-induced plant diseases.

AB  - Bois noir (BN), which is induced by 'Candidatus Phytoplasma solani' ('Ca. P. solani'), is an important grapevine yellows disease that causes severe damage in viticultural regions throughout the Euro-Mediterranean basin. An epidemiological survey to determine potential insect vectors and the primary reservoir plants of BN phytoplasma in Macedonian vineyards was undertaken between 2012 and 2013 in the southeastern part of the country. A study on the species diversity from the suborder Auchenorrhycha revealed the prevalence of the principal vector of 'Ca. P. solani', which is the planthopper Hyalesthes obsoletus. Reptalus panzeri, which is the second-most documented BN vector, was not recorded in Macedonian vineyards. Three leafhopper species, namely Psammotettix alienus, Artianus manderstjernii and Euscelis incisus, were also widespread in the BN-affected vineyards, but only H. obsoletus tested positive for 'Ca. P. solani'. Molecular characterizations were performed by the sequencing and/or RFLP typing of tuf, vmp1 and stamp genes, and the results were used to gain detailed insight into the molecular diversity of the 'Ca. P. solani' strains associated with grapevines, tentative reservoir plants (Urtica dioica and Convolvulus arvensis) and the H. obsoletus associated with these plants. Among the 91 'Ca. P. solani' strains detected in diverse plant and insect hosts, three tuf, five vmp1 and 11 distinct stamp genotypes were identified. Twelve comprehensive genotypes of 'Ca. P. solani' were detected according to the tuf/vmp1/stamp genotyping. The highest diversity of genotypes was detected among the strains from H. obsoletus individuals associated with U. dioica, of which the most frequent genotype was tuf-ab/V18/M1 (43 %). The tuf-b/V2-TA/STOL comprehensive genotype was found in 33 % of naturally infected grapevines. Two 'Ca. P. solani' genotypes were associated with U. dioica, namely (i) tuf-ab/V18/M1 (60 %) and tuf-a/V3/M4 (40 %), and only one genotype (tuf-b/V2-TA/Rqg50) was associated with C. arvensis.
