Interaction of Whitefly Effector G4 with Tomato Proteins Impacts Whitefly Performance

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
The phloem-feeding insect Bemisia tabaci is an important pest, responsible for the transmission of several crop-threatening virus species. While feeding, the insect secretes a cocktail of effectors to modulate plant defense responses.
