Glucosinolate Desulfation by the Phloem-Feeding Insect Bemisia tabaci

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2016
Glucosinolates are plant secondary defense metabolites confined nearly exclusively to the order Brassicales. Upon tissue rupture, glucosinolates are hydrolyzed to various bioactive breakdown products by the endogenous plant enzyme myrosinase. As the feeding of chewing insect herbivores is associated with plant tissue damage, these insects have ...

Biological control of Bemisia tabaci with fungi

Crop Protection, 2001
Recent advances in production, formulation, and application of insect pathogenic fungi have resulted in improvements in long-standing whitefly mycoinsecticide products based on Verticillium lecanii, and development and registration of several new products based on Paecilomyces fumosoroseus and Beauveria bassiana.

Bemisia tabaci, the Capacity to Invade

2011
Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is a cryptic ­species complex composed of numerous morphologically indistinguishable species, a number of which have been shown to be either completely or partially reproductively isolated. Several members of the complex have invaded beyond their home ranges and two, Middle East-Asia Minor 1 (commonly

Bemisia tabaci nomenclature: lessons learned

Pest Management Science, 2014
AbstractBACKGROUNDThe nomenclature used within the whitefly research community for different putative species within Bemisia tabaci (sensu Russell) remains highly variable and confused. This was evident by the many different naming schemes researchers were using in their presentations at the 1st International Whitefly Symposium in Kolymbari, Crete ...

Identification and characterization of doublesex in Bemisia tabaci

Insect Molecular Biology, 2018
Abstract Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) is an important agricultural pest with a worldwide distribution. Although B. tabaci is known to have a unique haplodiploid reproductive strategy, its sex determination mechanism is largely unknown.

Host plant resistance to Bemisia tabaci

Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 1986
Abstract Bemisia tabaci has a wide host range, attacking and damaging plants of several botanical families. Adults and larvae feed by sucking from the phloem bundles of the leaves. B. tabaci is attracted by the colour yellow and is believed not to react to odours.

Distribution ofBemisia tabaciGenetic Groups in India

Environmental Entomology, 2015
The whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is a phloem-feeding, economically important pest of crops worldwide. In addition to direct damage, it also vectors a number of plant viruses belonging to the family Geminiviridae. Its populations differ biologically with respect to insecticide resistance, virus transmission and host range.

Transovarial Transmission of Begomoviruses in Bemisia tabaci

2009
Transovarial transmission of viral nucleic acid in insect vectors, or more precisely of viral infectivity, can be very important in maintaining a source of infection and therefore has great epidemiological relevance. The first clear case of transovarial transmission of an arbovirus demonstrated the ability of sand fly and black fly vector populations ...

[Predation of Axinoscymnus cardilobus to Bemisia tabaci].

Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology, 2007
The laboratory study on the predation of Axinoscymnus cardilobus to Bemisia tabaci showed that the functional response of A. cardilobus to B. tabaci was of Holling' s type II. With the increasing age of B. tabaci, the searching rate of A. cardilobus adult decreased, and its handling time became longer. The searching rate of A.
