A non-targeted metabolomics study on Xylella fastidiosa infected olive plants grown under controlled conditions

Abstract In the last decade, the bacterial pathogen Xylella fastidiosa has devastated olive trees throughout Apulia region (Southern Italy) in the form of the disease called “Olive Quick Decline Syndrome” (OQDS). This study describes changes in the metabolic profile due to the infection by X. fastid...
