Red-light is an environmental effector for mutualism between begomovirus and its vector whitefly.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
Environments such as light condition influence the spread of infectious diseases by affecting insect vector behavior. However, whether and how light affects the host defense which further affects insect preference and performance, remains unclear, nor ...

The Incredible Journey of Begomoviruses in Their Whitefly Vector [PDF]

Viruses, 2017
Begomoviruses are vectored in a circulative persistent manner by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci. The insect ingests viral particles with its stylets. Virions pass along the food canal and reach the esophagus and the midgut. They cross the filter chamber and the midgut into the haemolymph, translocate into the primary salivary glands and are egested with ...

Recommendations for Management of Whiteflies, Whitefly-transmitted viruses, and Insecticide Resistance for Production of Cucurbit Crops in Florida

EDIS, 2011
Until recently, squash has been the only cucurbit crop seriously affected by the B biotype of the sweet potato whitefly, also known as the silverleaf whitefly, because of the silverleaf disorder induced by feeding of the immature stages (nymphs). However,

Cassava mosaic disease and its whitefly vector in Cameroon: Incidence, severity and whitefly numbers from field surveys

Crop Protection, 2022
Cassava plays a key role in the food security and economy of Cameroon, but its production is constrained by cassava mosaic disease (CMD). However, comprehensive surveys of CMD in Cameroon have been lacking. This study aimed at evaluating the current status of CMD and its whitefly vector.

A Semipersistent Plant Virus Differentially Manipulates Feeding Behaviors of Different Sexes and Biotypes of Its Whitefly Vector. [PDF]

, 2017
It is known that plant viruses can change the performance of their vectors. However, there have been no reports on whether or how a semipersistent plant virus manipulates the feeding behaviors of its whitefly vectors.

Evaluation of whitefly population and weather effect of cassava mosaic incidence on commonly grown cassava in Benue State, Nigeria

Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2020
Vector population and weather are critical in virus disease incidence and could be strategic for its management in agriculture. To investigate the influence of whitefly population and weather on Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) in cassava, TMS 419 and TME ...

Proteomic Analyses of Whitefly-Begomovirus Interactions Reveal the Inhibitory Role of Tumorous Imaginal Discs in Viral Retention

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
In nature, plant viruses are mostly transmitted by hemipteran insects, such as aphids, leafhoppers, and whiteflies. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interactions between virus and insect vector are poorly known.

Control of mosaic disease using microbial biostimulants: insights from mathematical modelling [PDF]

, 2020
A major challenge to successful crop production comes from viral diseases of plants that cause significant crop losses, threatening global food security and the livelihoods of countries that rely on those crops for their staple foods or source of income.
