Characterization of genes encoding small heat shock proteins from Bemisia tabaci and expression under thermal stress [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are probably the most diverse in structure and function among the various super-families of stress proteins, and they play essential roles in various biological processes.

Diversity analysis of Bemisia tabaci biotypes: RAPD, PCR-RFLP and sequencing of the ITS1 rDNA region

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2008
The Bemisia tabaci complex is formed by approximately 41 biotypes, two of which (B and BR) occur in Brazil. In this work we aimed at obtaining genetic markers to assess the genetic diversity of the different biotypes.

Cloning of Two Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Genes from Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius)

Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2020
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) mediate fast cholinergic synaptic transmission in the insect nervous system. Neonicotinoid insecticides exhibit insecticidal activities by targeting these receptors.
