Interactions between Common Bean Viruses and Their Whitefly Vector
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a widely cultivated crop, representing an important protein source in the human diet in developing countries. The production of this crop faces serious challenges, such as virus diseases transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci.

Coat protein of a whitefly‐vectored plant virus as a delivery system to target whitefly
Abstract The sweet potato whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is responsible for significant crop losses and presents one of the greatest challenges for global agricultural pest management.

Biology and management of Bemisia whitefly vectors of cassava virus pandemics in Africa
AbstractCassava mosaic disease and cassava brown streak disease are caused by viruses transmitted by Bemisia tabaci and affect approximately half of all cassava plants in Africa, resulting in annual production losses of more than $US 1 billion. A historical and current bias towards virus rather than vector control means that these diseases continue to ...

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is an essential vegetable crop cultivated worldwide, but its production is highly vulnerable to tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD), which is transmitted by whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci).

Viruses mobilize plant immunity to deter nonvector insect herbivores. [PDF]
A parasite-infected host may promote performance of associated insect vectors; but possible parasite effects on nonvector insects have been largely unexplored. Here, we show that Begomovirus, the largest genus of plant viruses and transmitted exclusively

Sequence analysis and genomic organization of Aphid lethal paralysis virus: a new member of the family Dicistroviridae [PDF]
The complete nucleotide sequence of the genomic RNA of an aphid-infecting virus, Aphid lethal paralysis virus (ALPV), has been determined. The genome is 9812 nt in length and contains two long open reading frames (ORFs), which are separated by an ...

Innate immunity shapes the persistent transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors
In this review, we focus on two key aspects of the virus–vector interplay: (1) persistently transmitted viruses utilize host factors to overcome transmission barriers; and (2) molecular recognition activates antiviral immunity and subsequent viral counter‐defense. Understanding these interactions offers critical insights for developing novel strategies

Crinivirus replication and host interactions
Criniviruses comprise one of the genera within the family Closteroviridae. Members in this family are restricted to the phloem and rely on whitefly vectors of the genera Bemisia and/or Trialeurodes for plant-to-plant transmission. All criniviruses have

Begomoviruses cause substantial losses to agricultural production, especially in tropical and subtropical regions, and are exclusively transmitted by members of the whitefly Bemisia tabaci species complex. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the

Statistical model for overdispersed count outcome with many zeros: an approach for direct marginal inference [PDF]
Marginalized models are in great demand by most researchers in the life sciences particularly in clinical trials, epidemiology, health-economics, surveys and many others since they allow generalization of inference to the entire population under study ...
