Cotton Leaf Curl Disease: Which Whitefly Is the Vector? [PDF]
Cotton leaf curl disease is one of the most significant constraints to the production of cotton. In the past decades our understanding of the begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) causing the disease has improved, but little is known regarding transmission of these viruses by the different species of whiteflies in the Bemisia tabaci complex.

Cassava mosaic disease incidence and severity and whitefly vector distribution in Gabon
Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) is a major constraint to cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) production in sub-Saharan Africa. The objective of this study was to gain insights into the epidemiology of CMD in cassava production systems in Gabon. An epidemiological survey was conducted throughout Gabon from October 2020 to May 2021 to evaluate the ...

Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) Management Program for Ornamental Plants
Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), commonly known as silverleaf whitefly, is a polyphagous pest and listed as one of the world’s 100 worst invasive species. It is known to feed on more than 1000 plant species and vector over 120 plant-damaging viruses.

Most plant viruses rely on vector transmission for their spread and specific interactions between vector and virus have evolved to regulate this relationship. The whitefly Bemisia tabaci- transmitted cucumber vein yellowing virus (CVYV; genus Ipomovirus,

Many circulative plant viruses transmitted by insect vectors are devastating to agriculture worldwide. The midgut wall of vector insects represents a major barrier and at the same time the key gate a circulative plant virus must cross for productive ...

Apoptotic neurodegeneration in whitefly promotes the spread of TYLCV
The mechanism by which plant viruses manipulate the behavior of insect vectors has largely been described as indirect manipulation through modifications of the host plant.

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

PEBP balances apoptosis and autophagy in whitefly upon arbovirus infection
Arbovirus has co-evolved with its insect vector, enabling efficient and persistent transmission by vectors. Here, the authors reveal an immune homeostatic mechanism shaped by apoptosis and autophagy that facilitates arbovirus preservation within its ...

Efficient Protein Expression and Virus-Induced Gene Silencing in Plants Using a Crinivirus-Derived Vector. [PDF]
Plant virus-based vectors are valuable tools for recombinant gene expression and functional genomics for both basic and applied research. In this study, Lettuce infectious yellows virus (LIYV) of the genus Crinivirus was engineered into a virus vector ...

Cotton leaf curl Multan virus (CLCuMuV) is one of the major casual agents of cotton leaf curl disease. Previous studies show that two indigenous whitefly species of the Bemisia tabaci complex, Asia II 1 and Asia II 7, are able to transmit CLCuMuV, but ...
