Vibrational communication and mating behavior of the greenhouse whitefly Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). [PDF]
The greenhouse whitefly (GW), Trialeurodes vaporariorum is considered one of the most harmful insect pests in greenhouses worldwide. The GW mating behavior has been partially investigated and its vibrational communication is only in part known.

Volatile-Mediated Attraction of Greenhouse Whitefly Trialeurodes vaporariorum to Tomato and Eggplant [PDF]
The behavior of the greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), is known to be affected by plant volatile cues, but its attraction or repellent to specific volatile cues has not been deeply studied yet.

A standardised bioassay method using a bench-top spray tower to evaluate entomopathogenic fungi for control of the greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Bioassays evaluating entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) isolates for effective microbial control of whitefly are a fundamental part of the screening process for bioprotectants, but development of repeatable, robust bioassays is not straightforward ...

Greenhouse Whitefly Control on Marigolds, 1992 [PDF]
Abstract Marigold plants were grown from seed in 6 inch clay pots for ten weeks (10 inches-12 inches tall) in a research greenhouse infested with whitefly at Michigan State University. The plants were watered by a drip irrigation system for 4 min each day, 3 d per wk (Mon, Wed, and Fri). Each treatment was replicated 6 times.

Greenhouse Whitefly Control on Fushift, 1982 [PDF]
Abstract Five, 6-in pots containing five, 24-in Fushia shoots were heavily infested with the greenhouse whitefly. Each plot was randomly assigned to one of five treatments and the whiteflies were counted on the terminal five leaves of each shoot. Sprays were applied with a compressed air sprayer until the plants dripped.

Assessing the augmentation of Amblydromalus limonicus with the supplementation of pollen, thread, and substrates to combat greenhouse whitefly populations. [PDF]
Due to issues with establishment and persistence of natural enemies in biological control, the provision of alternative food sources and oviposition sites are important factors to enhance pest control.
