A salivary ferritin in the whitefly suppresses plant defenses and facilitates host exploitation

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2019
A secreted ferritin in the whitefly Bemisia tabaci enables insect feeding and suppresses plant immune responses by disruption of H2O2 accumulation and JA signaling.

Biotechnological interventions for the sustainable management of a global pest, whitefly (Bemisia tabaci)

open access: yesInsect Science, 2020
Whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci) are polyphagous invasive hemipteran insects that cause serious losses of important crops by directly feeding on phloem sap and transmitting pathogenic viruses. These insects have emerged as a major threat to global agriculture

Understanding biological control function and trophic interaction dynamics of an artificially released predatory bug by DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This study investigated the dietary composition of Sycanus bifidus, a generalist predator of the assassin bug that is artificially released into citrus orchards, and uncovered its trophic structure across various pest species using metabarcoding‐based molecular gut content analysis.

Identification and characterization of a cucumber accession resistant to tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV) causes significant yield and fruit quality losses in cucurbit crops, particularly in the Mediterranean region. We identified a new source of resistance to ToLCNDV in cucumber (accession ABS.PE.045) and mapped resistance to four genomic intervals in chromosomes 1, 2, 6, and 7.

A new species of Aleurolobus Quaintance et Baker (Homoptera, Aleyrodidae) from Southern Europe. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Aleurolobus teucrii n. sp. is described from southern Italy and the Maltese Islands (Central Mediterranean). The species seems to be monophagous on Teucrium fruticans L. A key to the European species of this genus (A.

siRNA Machinery in Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci)

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
RNA interference has been emerged as an utmost tool for the control of sap sucking insect pests. Systemic response is necessary to control them in field condition. Whitefly is observed to be more prone to siRNA in recent studies, however the siRNA machinery and mechanism is not well established.To identify the core siRNA machinery, we curated ...

Yellow canopy syndrome of sugarcane: A review of current knowledge and future research directions

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Yellow Canopy Syndrome (YCS) is a complex issue affecting commercial sugarcane in Australia, first identified in Far North Queensland over a decade ago. It has spread across most cane‐growing regions in Queensland and poses a significant threat to the global sugarcane industry.

Polarization vision and the physiological basis for trichromatic vision in Philaenus spumarius: Understanding host‐seeking behaviour in insect vectors for Xylella fastidiosa control

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
We investigated the role of vision in host‐seeking behaviour by Philaenus spumarius, the main European vector of Xylella fastidiosa, through an integrated anatomical, optical, physiological, and behavioural study. Our data highlight that the spittlebug uses visual cues, including polarized light, which may aid in detecting the polarized reflections ...

Plant diversification impact on the oviposition response of a predatory bug in a laboratory set‐up

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Orius majusculus laid nearly twice as many eggs in cages with two different crop species compared with a single species. Depending on crop species, O. majusculus utilised different plant structures for oviposition. Crop diversification supports reproduction, and thus, is likely to have a positive effect on O.
