Pierce’s Disease
• Caused by overgrowth of

• Blocks xylem circulation
• Eventually whole plant dies
• Vines, even whole
vineyards, if infected may
be destroyed
• Same bacterial species
causes problems in many
other plants
• Potential for billions of $$
of economic damage
• Many of world’s experts at
UC Davis and other UCs

Glassy-winged sharpshooters overwinter as adults
and begin laying egg masses in late February
through May. This first generation matures as
adults in late May through late August. Second-
generation egg masses are laid starting in mid-
June through late September, which develop into
over-wintering adults.
