Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearumis a gram-negative bacterium restricted to plant phloem, associated with economically important diseases such as potato zebra chip and yellow decline and with vegetative disorders in carrots and celery. Over the past decade, the zebra chip disease resulted in major economic loses in the potato production of U.S.A., Mexico, Central America and New Zealand. Outbreaks of yellow decline and vegetative disorders in carrot and celery crops have been reported recently in geographically distant areas and the countries of Europe (Finland, Sweden, Norway, Spain, France and Germany). The infected plants showed symptoms including yellow, bronze or red leaf discoloration, reduced size of main root and lateral root proliferation. Given the importance of carrot production in Serbia, the goal of this review paper is to raise awareness about the disease occurrence and distribution, discuss the main characteristics of this relatively unknown pathogen, its detection and identification, epidemiology, symptomatology and disease management, before this emerging plant pathogenic organism reaches our country.
