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 ...

Plant begomoviruses subvert ubiquitination to suppress plant defenses against insect vectors. [PDF]
Most plant viruses are vectored by insects and the interactions of virus-plant-vector have important ecological and evolutionary implications. Insect vectors often perform better on virus-infected plants. This indirect mutualism between plant viruses and

Apoptosis in a Whitefly Vector Activated by a Begomovirus Enhances Viral Transmission
Of the approximately 1,100 known plant viruses, about one-third are DNA viruses that are vectored by insects. Plant virus infections often induce cellular and molecular responses in their insect vectors, which can, in many cases, affect the spread of viruses.

Vector-Virus Mutualism Accelerates Population Increase of an Invasive Whitefly
The relationships between plant viruses, their herbivore vectors and host plants can be beneficial, neutral, or antagonistic, depending on the species involved. This variation in relationships may affect the process of biological invasion and the displacement of indigenous species by invaders when the invasive and indigenous organisms occur with niche ...
