The phytoplasma SAP54 effector acts as a molecular matchmaker for leafhopper vectors by targeting plant MADS-box factor SVP

eLife
Obligate parasites often trigger significant changes in their hosts to facilitate transmission to new hosts. The molecular mechanisms behind these extended phenotypes - where genetic information of one organism is manifested as traits in another - remain

A new species of the sharpshooter genus Cardioscarta (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) from Bolivia and Peru

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2016
The South American sharpshooter genus Cardioscarta Melichar, 1932 comprises six species. In this paper we describe and illustrate C. splendida sp. nov. based on a specimen from Bolivia (male holotype deposited in DZUP).

Wolbachia Transinfection and Effect on the Biological Traits of Matsumuratettix hiroglyphicus (Matsumura), the Leafhopper Vector of Sugarcane White Leaf Disease

Agriculture
The bacterial genus Wolbachia induces reproductive abnormalities in its insect host, including cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI), which causes embryonic death in the crossing of infected males and uninfected females.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the leafhopper Evacanthus acuminatus (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Evacanthinae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The complete mitogenome of Evacanthus acuminatus was described in this study. The circular molecule is 14,793 bp in length (GenBank accession no. MK948205), and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and an A + T-rich ...

Species Diversity of Leafhoppers (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and Population Dynamics of Zyginidia sohrab (Zachvatkin, 1947) in Maize Fields of Bolu, Türkiye

ISPEC Journal of Agricultural Sciences
Maize is a globally important crop, with its productivity increasingly threatened by leafhopper species (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), which cause direct feeding damage and transmit plant pathogens.

Spiroplasmas in leafhoppers: a review.

The Yale journal of biology and medicine, 1984
This review describes the pathway a plant pathogenic mycoplasma or spiroplasma takes in its passage through a leafhopper vector. Reference is made to several strains of spiroplasma and acholeplasma, but, in particular, data are presented for Spiroplasma citri and the corn stunt spiroplasma.

Geometric design of antireflective leafhopper brochosomes

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
In nature, leafhoppers cover their body surfaces with brochosomes as a protective coating. These leafhopper-produced brochosomes are hollow, buckyball-shaped, nanoscopic spheroids with through-holes distributed across their surfaces, representing a class of deployable optical materials that are rare in nature.
