Localizing Viruses in Their Insect Vectors
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2014The mechanisms and impacts of the transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors have been studied for more than a century. The virus route within the insect vector is amply documented in many cases, but the identity, the biochemical properties, and the structure of the actual molecules (or molecule domains) ensuring compatibility between them remain

Oviposition pheromones in insect vectors
Parasitology Today, 1995Oviposition aggregation pheromones occur in a range of insect groups including Diptera, where they mediate oviposition in four different families of disease vectors. In this paper, Philip McCall and Mary Cameron discuss the selection pressures favouring oviposition pheromones and speculate on their potential applications in disease monitoring and ...

Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2004
The purpose of this study was to explore alternatives to insect-derived transposable elements as insect gene vectors with the intention of improving existing insect transgenesis methods. The mobility properties of the bacterial transposon, Tn5, were tested in mosquitoes using a transient transposable element mobility assay and by attempting to create ...

Transovarial Transmission in Insect Vectors
2019Phytoplasma ability to infect a new generation of insects by transovarial transmission was demonstrated in some insect vector/plant host combinations mainly by molecular evidence coupled with biological assays. Scaphoideus titanus was the first one in which phytoplasma detection in eggs, newly hatched nymphs and adults (reared on phytoplasma-free Vicia

Capturing Insect Vectors of Phytoplasmas
2012Insect vectors of phytoplasmas are limited to leafhoppers, planthoppers, and psyllids. While populations can be monitored by a number of passive techniques in the field, the capture of live insects is necessary for manipulation and study. A number of physical methods for capturing these insects already exist, but more innovative traps equipped with ...

Transmission of Grabloviruses by Insect Vectors
Among the three viruses of the genus Grablovirus in the plant virus family Geminiviridae, insect vector transmission is documented only for grapevine red blotch virus (GRBV), for which Spissistilus festinus (Hemiptera: Membracidae), the three-cornered alfalfa hopper, is identified as a vector.

Invasions by Insect Vectors of Human Disease
Annual Review of Entomology, 2002▪ Abstract Nonindigenous vectors that arrive, establish, and spread in new areas have fomented throughout recorded history epidemics of human diseases such as malaria, yellow fever, typhus, and plague. Although some vagile vectors, such as adults of black flies, biting midges, and tsetse flies, have dispersed into new habitats by flight or wind, human-

Insect pests and insect‐vectored diseases of palms
Australian Journal of Entomology, 2009AbstractPalm production faces serious challenges ranging from diseases to damage by insect pests, all of which may reduce productivity by as much as 30%. A number of disorders of unknown aetiology but associated with insects are now recognised. Management practices that ensure the sustainability of palm production systems require a sound understanding ...

INSECT VECTORS OF POLIOMYELITIS
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1943To the Editor:— In reading your editorial on "Insect Vectors of Poliomyelitis" in the August 28 issue ofThe JournalI was struck by this statement: "The dominant species in each group were green bottleflies and blowflies, the common housefly being present in small numbers in only two of the four positive specimens." The common housefly is such an ...
