Manipulation of Host Quality and Defense by a Plant Virus Improves Performance of Whitefly Vectors

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2015
Pathogen-mediated interactions between insect vectors and their host plants can affect herbivore fitness and the epidemiology of plant diseases. While the role of plant quality and defense in mediating these tripartite interactions has been recognized, there are many ecologically and economically important cases where the nature of the interaction has ...

BIORATIONAL INSECTICIDE ADOPTION AND CONVENTIONAL INSECTICIDE USE: A SIMULTANEOUS, LIMITED DEPENDENT VARIABLE MODEL [PDF]

Using data reporting section-level pesticide use for all of Arizona, this study estimates how early-season adoption of new biorational insecticides reduced subsequent broad-spectrum insecticide applications in cotton.

Enabling biocontained plant virus transmission studies through establishment of an axenic whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) colony on plant tissue culture

Scientific Reports
Whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci) and the diseases they transmit are a major detriment to crop yields and a significant contributor to world hunger. The highly evolved interactions of host plant, phloem-feeding insect vector with endosymbionts and persistently

Begomovirus capsid proteins interact with cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-specific phosphodiesterase of its whitefly vector and modulate virus retention within its vector

Journal of Virology
Begomoviruses are whitefly-transmitted ss-DNA viruses that infect dicotyledonous plants and contribute to major economic losses to global crop production.

Whitefly-transmitted viruses [PDF]

, 2017
Whiteflies (Homoptera) are well known for their capacity to transmit 28 plant viruses of beans and other crops. Whitefly populations are generally restricted to tropical zones with alt. greater than 1300 m.

Torradoviruses are transmitted in a semi-persistent and stylet-borne manner by three whitefly vectors

Virus Research, 2014
Members of the genus Torradovirus (family Secoviridae, type species Tomato torrado virus, ToTV) are spherical plant viruses transmitted by the whitefly species Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Bemisia tabaci. Knowledge on the mode of vector transmission is lacking for torradoviruses. Here, the mode of transmission was determined for Tomato marchitez virus

Variation in both host defense and prior herbivory can alter plant-vector-virus interactions

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background While virus-vector-host interactions have been a major focus of both basic and applied ecological research, little is known about how different levels of plant defense interact with prior herbivory to affect these relationships.
