Interaction of Whitefly Effector G4 with Tomato Proteins Impacts Whitefly Performance
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. Here, we present a set of proteins identified in an artificial diet on which B. tabaci was salivating. We subsequently

RESULTS OF THE THREE-YEAR MONITORING (2001.-2003.) OF TOBACCO WHITEFLY Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius, 1889), (HOMOPTERA: ALEYRODIDAE) IN CROATIA [PDF]
The quarantine pest tobacco whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius, 1889) was for the first time found in Croatia in 2000 on some culture and weed plants in greenhouses and in the open field in the area from Trogir to Omiš.

Evolving resistance patterns in Tetranychus urticae and Bemisia tabaci in Greece
Greek populations of T. urticae and B. tabaci exhibit evolving multi‐resistance, confirmed by bioassays and molecular markers, highlighting the urgent need for evidence‐based resistance monitoring in IPM. Abstract BACKGROUND Pesticide resistance in agricultural pests remains a major barrier to effective and sustainable crop protection.

Non‐Canonical, Somatic‐Dependent Vertical Transmission of Wolbachia in an Aphid
We discovered a novel somatic‐associated Wolbachia transmission strategy in cedar bark aphids (Cinara cedri), contrasting with its typical maternal vertical transmission. This unique maternally retained somatic re‐acquisition strategy—a “piggybacking” on the highly efficient obligate symbiont transmission pathway—reveals diverse endosymbiont strategies

“Whiteflies” is the common name of an insect group (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) which has around 1556 described species (Martin & Mound, 2007), although only about thirty species have been mentioned in Spain which are included in the table 1 (Martin et al., 2000). The origin of this group of insects is very varied, as its current spread.
