Topical Spray of dsRNA Induces Mortality and Inhibits Chilli Leaf Curl Virus Transmission by Bemisia tabaci Asia II 1

Cells, 2022
Chilli leaf curl virus (ChiLCV; genus: Begomovirus), transmitted by Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in a persistent-circulative manner, is a major constraint in chilli production. The present study demonstrates for the first time that

Cytpchrome P450 CYP4G68 Is Associated with Imidacloprid and Thiamethoxam Resistance in Field Whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Gennadius)

Agriculture, 2022
The superfamily cytochrome P450s is involved in the evolution of insecticide resistance. However, whether CYP4G68, a differentially expressed gene identified from our transcriptomics analysis, confers resistance to the world’s heavily used insecticide ...

Multiple Horizontal Acquisitions of Plant Genes in the Whitefly Bemisia tabaci

bioRxiv, 2022
The extent to which horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has shaped eukaryote evolution remains an open question. Two recent studies reported four plant-like genes acquired through two HGT events by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci, a major agricultural pest ...

Distribution of Bemisia tabaci in different agro-ecological regions in Uganda and the threat of vector-borne pandemics into new cassava growing areas

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2023
Previous studies in sub-Saharan Africa have showed the spread of cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) pandemics into different cassava growing regions by high Bemisia tabaci populations.
