Modulation of Plant Interactions with Whitefly and Whitefly-Borne Viruses by Salicylic Acid Signaling Pathway: A Review [PDF]
Whiteflies of the Bemisia tabaci complex, along with the plant viruses they transmit, pose significant challenges to crop production worldwide. Upon infestation or infection, intimate interactions occur between plant hosts and these pests, influencing ...

Aboveground Whitefly Infestation Modulates Transcriptional Levels of Anthocyanin Biosynthesis and Jasmonic Acid Signaling-Related Genes and Augments the Cope with Drought Stress of Maize. [PDF]
Up to now, the potential underlying molecular mechanisms by which maize (Zea mays L.) plants elicit defense responses by infestation with a phloem feeding insect whitefly [Bemisia tabaci (Genn.)] have been barely elucidated against (a)biotic stresses. To
