Competition among Flavescence Dorée Phytoplasma Strains in the Experimental Insect Vector Euscelidius variegatus. [PDF]

open access: yesInsects, 2023
Phytoplasmas are plant pathogenic wall-less bacteria transmitted in a persistent propagative manner by hemipteran insects, mainly belonging to the suborder Auchenorrhyncha (Fulgoromorpha and Cicadomorpha).

Acoustic communication in insect disease vectors [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
Acoustic signalling has been extensively studied in insect species, which has led to a better understanding of sexual communication, sexual selection and modes of speciation. The significance of acoustic signals for a blood-sucking insect was first reported in the XIX century by Christopher Johnston, studying the hearing organs of mosquitoes, but has ...

Progression of Watermelon Bud Necrosis Virus Infection in Its Vector, Thrips palmi

open access: yesCells, 2021
Thrips are important pests of agricultural, horticultural, and forest crops worldwide. In addition to direct damages caused by feeding, several thrips species can transmit diverse tospoviruses. The present understanding of thrips–tospovirus relationships

Assessing the Impact of Insecticide Resistance on Vector Competence: A Review

open access: yes, 2022
The primary strategy to avoid adverse impacts from insect-mediated pathogen transmission is the chemical control of vector populations through insecticides; its continued use has led to insecticide resistance and unknown consequences on vector competence.

Highly focused transcriptional response of Anopheles coluzzii to O’nyong nyong arbovirus during the primary midgut infection

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background Anopheles mosquitoes are efficient vectors of human malaria, but it is unknown why they do not transmit viruses as well as Aedes and Culex mosquitoes.

Insect Vector Transmission Assays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Phytoplasmas are transmitted in a persistent propagative manner by phloem-feeding vectors belonging to the order Hemiptera, suborder Homoptera. Following acquisition from the infected source plant, there is a latent period before the vector can transmit, so transmission assays consist of three basic steps: acquisition, latency, and inoculation.

Late-acting dominant lethal genetic systems and mosquito control. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Reduction or elimination of vector populations will tend to reduce or eliminate transmission of vector-borne diseases. One potential method for environmentally-friendly, species-specific population control is the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT)

Transovarial Transmission of Dolichos Yellow Mosaic Virus by Its Vector, Bemisia tabaci Asia II 1

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The cultivation of dolichos bean [Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet] has been severely affected by dolichos yellow mosaic virus (DoYMV, Begomovirus) transmitted by whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae).

Learning and Memory in Disease Vector Insects [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Parasitology, 2016
Learning and memory plays an important role in host preference and parasite transmission by disease vector insects. Historically there has been a dearth of standardized protocols that permit testing their learning abilities, thus limiting discussion on the potential epidemiological consequences of learning and memory to a largely speculative extent ...

Establishment of a primary cell culture of Thrips palmi (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2023
Thrips palmi (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) is an important pest of vegetables, ornamental plants and fruit crops. In addition to the direct damage caused by feeding, it transmits several tospoviruses.
