Planthopper protein Nlsp5 is essential for salivary sheath formation and acts as a HAMP inducing plant resistance to insects

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary During herbivore feeding, plants can recognize herbivore‐associated molecular patterns (HAMPs) present in saliva and trigger pattern‐triggered immunity (PTI). Piercing‐sucking insects secrete gel saliva, forming salivary sheaths that aid in feeding. However, the role of proteins within these salivary sheaths in modulating plant defences remains

Current Status of Tomato Chlorosis Virus and Whiteflies in Potato Crops of São Paulo State and Virus–Vector–Host Interactions

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 1585-1592, August 2025.
ToCV is not widely distributed in potato crops in São Paulo, but its transmission by Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 and MED and its high vertical transmission rate highlight the need for monitoring to mitigate its potential future impact. ABSTRACT Potato is a vital food source worldwide, but its production is frequently threatened by viral diseases.
