Hemipteran vectors of stylet‐borne plant viruses: Aphids lead the charge
Insect Science, EarlyView.Among all sap‐feeding hemipterans, aphids stand out by far as the most important vectors of noncirculative plant viruses. Compared to whiteflies and mealybugs, aphids’ highly specialized stylet anatomy and distinct feeding behaviors contribute, together with other features of their biology, to their remarkable efficiency in transmitting stylet‐borne ...

The karyotype of Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae)
Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1998 Whiteflies of the Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) group are a major and increasing problem for agriculture throughout the world. In particular, the appearance and rapid spread of a highly virulent new form (silver-leaf whitefly, or B-biotype; Brown et ah, 1995), and recognition that the problem involves a complex of sibling species, host races and/or ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.The mutualism between Tapinoma ibericum ants and Aphis gossypii disrupts the biological control exerted by Aphidius colemani in greenhouse peppers. Ant exclusion increased parasitism and the presence of most natural enemies, although Aphidoletes aphidimyza was more abundant with ants.

Evaluation of Orius laevigatus as a predator of Bemisia tabaci in Vitro
Arab Universities Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022 This study determined the ability of Orius laevigatus to consume different stages of Bemisia tabaci at various densities. Additionally, the use of B. tabaci as food and its effect on the life cycle parameters and female fecundity of Orius predator developmental stages were investigated. The results showed that O.
