    "abstract": "Citrus huanglongbing (HLB) also known as citrus greening is the most destructive disease of citrus worldwide.  Three species of the causal organism have been identified.  These are ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’, ‘Ca. L. africanus’ and ‘Ca. L. americanus’ (Bové, 2006). In 2010 a survey of non-citrus plants was conducted on two major citrus producing farms in Clarendon and St Catherine in Jamaica.  This was to determine the possibility of the existence of non-citrus hosts of HLB.  A total of 120 plants belonging to 10 different species and nine families were collected over a period of two months.  The plants collected included weeds as well as non-citrus trees.  None of the plants collected exhibited any symptoms of HLB and at the time of sample collection, no citrus psyllids was observed on the plants.  DNA was extracted from plant samples using the method of Dellaporta et al. (1983) and analysed by PCR using the primer pair OI1 (5` GCGCGTATGCAATACGAGCGGCA3`) and OI2c (5`GCCTCGCGACTTCGCAACCCAT 3`). DNA obtained from a confirmed HLB infected citrus plant from Florida served as the positive control whereas DNA from a citrus plant uninfected by HLB was used as the negative control.",
