How can we detect Xylella fastidiosa before visible symptoms appear on crops?
BeXyl Practice Abstract 11 details our global network of sentinel plots established as an active early-warning system under real field conditions.
Key Insights:
Global Network: 12 sentinel plots established across 8 countries in Europe and the Americas under contrasting climates.
Standardization: Deployment of common host plants (olive, almond, sweet orange, Spanish broom) monitored with unified sampling and molecular testing protocols.
Asymptomatic Detection: Inspections in Mallorca and Costa Rica confirmed infections in asymptomatic plants, proving visual diagnostics alone are unreliable.
Epidemiology: The network delivers comparable data on infection risks, host exposure, and insect vector transmission under different environments.
Complementing official plant health surveys with standardized sentinel networks is crucial for improving regional biosecurity and preparedness.

The BeXyl project recently convened its Final Stakeholder Meeting, entitled “Science, Innovation and Action Against Xylella fastidiosa in Europe”, in Brussels, marking the culmination of four years of multidisciplinary research and collaboration.
This recording presents the comprehensive outcomes of the project, focusing on sustainable strategies to mitigate the impact of Xylella fastidiosa across European and international agricultural sectors.
The official agenda presented at the meeting includes:
Advances in epidemiology, surveillance, and early detection
New biological control approaches and plant resilience strategies
Policy support tools and socio-economic impact assessments
These integrated findings provide scientists, agricultural stakeholders, and policymakers with the scientific framework and practical solutions required to manage existing outbreaks and protect disease-free territories.
We extend our gratitude to all project partners, stakeholders, and attendees for their active participation and contribution over the past four years.
