Provides management recommendations, strategies for detection and scouting, and advice about control measures for Bemisia tabaci.

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of alcoholic extracts in managing Bemisia tabaci biotype B in tomato crops. The experiments were conducted at UEMS - Cassilândia, using a randomized block design with five treatments and four replications. Alcoholic extracts were obtained from Ruta gra...

Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD), a major threat to cotton production in Pakistan and northwestern India, is caused by a complex of begomoviruses transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci. These begomoviruses are typically associated with Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMuB) and often a...

The density seasonal dynamics of Bemisia tabaci MED were evaluated over two years in a cotton-growing area in Langfang, Hebei Province, northern China on cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) and six other co-occurring common plants, common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.), piemarker (Abutilon theophra...

The whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, is a major pest of cassava, particularly in Africa where it is responsible both for the transmission of plant viruses and, increasingly, for direct damage due to feeding by high populations. To date, there have been no practical solutions to combat this emerging problem...

Genes resistant to Aleurotrachelus socialis were transferred to the F1 from the interspecific hybrid wild species of Manihot flabellifolia to M. esculenta and two advanced generations of backcrosses (BC1 and BC2). We characterized the resistance of A. socialis transferred to BC2 parents (CW67-160, C...

Plant structures and chemicals, which are developed from the shoot apical meristem (SAM), form the main barriers to insect feeding. A plant chimera containing cells of different genetic origins in the SAM will be morphologically and chemically different compared with the parents and thus may result...

The whitefly Bemisia tabaci are considered as a taxonomically complex that contained some destructive pests. Two of the most prevalent cryptic species are B. tabaci Middle East-Asia Minor 1 (MEAM1) and Mediterranean (MED). In an extensive field survey of the B. tabaci complex present throughout part...

IntroductionThe whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, is a serious pest of cassava that causes yield loss through physical damage and vectoring of viruses that cause devastating cassava mosaic (CMD) and cassava brown streak (CBSD) diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of commerciall...

The whitefly Bemisia tabaci, an important agricultural insect pest, secretes saliva into plants while feeding on them. Our previous study found that the whitefly secretes the salivary effector protein BtArmet (Bemisia tabaci arginine rich, mutated in early stage of tumors) to inhibit plant resistanc...
