Implementation of IPM programs on European greenhouse tomato production areas: tools and constraints [PDF]
Whiteflies and whitefly-transmitted viruses are some of the major constraints on European tomato production. The main objectives of this study were to: identify where and why whiteflies are a major limitation on tomato crops; collect information about ...

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

Market-Based Instruments for the Optimal Control of Invasive Insect Species: B. Tabaci in Arizona [PDF]
Invasive insect species represent perhaps one of the most significant potential sources of economic risk to U.S. agricultural production. Private control of invasive insect species is likely to be insufficient due to negative externality and weaker-link ...

Begomovirus AC1 protein switches sides to boost plant defense against whiteflies
Plant-virus-vector interactions are multifaceted, with virus infection impacting herbivore performance positively, neutrally, or negatively. This is particularly evident in begomoviruses, which commonly establish mutualistic relationships with their ...

Searching for wide spectrum resistance to begomovirus disease in tomato in Réunion Island [PDF]
The emergence of Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and other begomoviruses from past decades in many countries was demonstrated to be coupled with the invasion of biotype B of the whitefly Bemisia tabaci.

Exploring Host Resistance against Chilli Leaf Curl Disease in a Tolerant Chilli Genotype
In tropical countries, combating leaf curl disease in hot peppers has become important in improvement programs. Leaf curl disease is caused by whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) transmitted begomoviruses, which mainly include chilli leaf curl virus (ChiLCV ...

Virus/vector interaction for aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and whitefly (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae)
Impact caused by aphids and whiteflies has grown considerably in the last decades, due to the increase in population outbreaks of of these virus-transmitting pests in a variety of economically important crops. The acquisition and transmission of most phytopathogenic viruses by a vector insect is the central point of the cycle of an infection.

The viral content ratio between abdomen and head is informative of the relative efficiency with which Bemisia tabaci populations transmit begomoviruses. [P.12] [PDF]
Begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) are transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci in a circulative non propagative manner. B. tabaci is a species complex composed of at least 24 morphocryptic species which differ in host range, insecticide resistance ...
