Rapid, Affordable, Collection and Analysis of Bioaerosol Viral Pathogen (Begomoviruses and Whitefly Vectors) [PDF]
, 2018 AbstractDetection of pathogens is critical to monitoring their distribution and spread, and is a key component in the prediction and management of disease epidemiology. Monitoring for pathogens as bioaerosols requires developing techniques which are sensitive, affordable, and time saving before they will have widespread impact.

Phytopathology®, 2021 Pepper cultivation in Israel has been constrained by two sympatric poleroviruses, Pepper vein yellows virus-2 (PeVYV-2) and Pepper whitefly-borne vein yellows virus (PeWBVYV), which are transmitted specifically by aphids and whiteflies, respectively.

Non‐Canonical, Somatic‐Dependent Vertical Transmission of Wolbachia in an Aphid
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.We discovered a novel somatic‐associated Wolbachia transmission strategy in cedar bark aphids (Cinara cedri), contrasting with its typical maternal vertical transmission. This unique maternally retained somatic re‐acquisition strategy—a “piggybacking” on the highly efficient obligate symbiont transmission pathway—reveals diverse endosymbiont strategies

Begomovirus-Associated Satellite DNA Diversity Captured Through Vector-Enabled Metagenomic (VEM) Surveys Using Whiteflies (Aleyrodidae) [PDF]
Viruses, 2016 Monopartite begomoviruses (Geminiviridae), which are whitefly-transmitted single-stranded DNA viruses known for causing devastating crop diseases, are often associated with satellite DNAs. Since begomovirus acquisition or exchange of satellite DNAs may lead to adaptation to new plant hosts and emergence of new disease complexes, it is important to ...

Phytoparasitica, 2021 Interactions among the four biotic agents - the host plants, a virus, insect vector whiteflies and their bacterial endosymbionts was investigated in this study. The whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is an important crop pest that is infected by several endosymbiotic bacteria that can play varying roles on their hosts.

Integrated Management of Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus and its Whitefly Vector in Tomato
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2019 AbstractWhitefly-transmitted Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (Family Geminiviridae; Genus Begomovirus) severely restricts tomato production in the Southeastern United States. Whitefly and tomato yellow leaf curl virus management studies typically investigate control tactics individually, but successful management of this pest complex more often relies on

Resistance levels of cassava landraces to CMD, CBSD and vector whiteflies in Malawi
, 2023 Abstract Cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava brown streak disease (CBSD) have been two major threats to cassava production in eastern and southern Africa. This study was designed to identify CMD- and CBSD-resistant cassava landraces and farmer-preferred varieties in Malawi for effective disease control.

Plant pathogen profiling with the EpiPvr package
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 837-849, March 2026.Abstract This study introduces a flexible framework for epidemiological profiling of insect‐borne plant pathogens (IBPPs), utilising readily available experimental data. The framework is applicable to most IBPPs transmitted by insects feeding on plant veins, with particular relevance to whitefly‐borne viruses that impact cassava production in sub ...

Enhanced vitellogenesis in a whitefly via feeding on a begomovirus-infected plant. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: The MEAM1 (B biotype) Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) is one of the most widespread and damaging whitefly cryptic species. Our previous studies discovered that the MEAM1 whitefly indirectly benefits from interactions with the tomato yellow leaf ...
