Vector-borne plant diseases have significant ecological and economic impacts, affecting farm profitability and forest composition throughout the world. Bacterial vector-borne pathogens have evolved sophisticated strategies to interact with their hemipteran insect vectors and planthosts. These pathogens reside in plant vascular tissue, and their study represents an excellent opportunity to uncover novel biologicalmechanisms regulating intracellular pathogenesis and to contribute to the control of some of the world'smost invasive emerging diseases. In this perspective, we highlight recent advances and major un answered questions in the realm of bacterial vector-borne disease, focusing on liberibacters, phytoplasmas, spiroplasmas, and Xylella fastidiosa.
