Plant-mediated interactions between whiteflies, herbivores, and natural enemies.
Whiteflies (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) comprise tiny phloem-sucking insects. The sessile development of their immatures and their phloem-feeding habits (with minimal physical plant damage) often lead to plant-mediated interactions with other organisms. The main data come from the polyphagous pest species Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) and Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood), which are intricately ass...
متن کاملInteractions between transgenic plants, the diamondback moth and natural enemies
Several Brassica crops have been transformed with -endotoxin genes from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) to provide resistance to the diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella) and other lepidopteran pests. This paper describes studies of the direct and indirect effects of Bt plants on a parasitoid of P. xylostella using Cry1Acexpressing transgenic oilseed rape (canola) as an example. The braconid wasp ...

متن کاملInfochemical-tritrophic Interactions of Soybean Aphids-host Plants-natural Enemies and Their Practical Applications in Pest Management
The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura, is a newly invasive insect species that seriously threatens U.S. soybean production. This aphid pest has kept haunting many soybean growers by developing large colonies on soybeans in North America since 2000. Since its first appearance in Wisconsin, it has spread to over half of US states and southern provinces in Canada. The heavy infestation of th...
متن کاملHow leaf domatia and induced plant resistance affect herbivores, natural enemies and plant performance
Predators and plant resistance may act together to control herbivorous arthropod populations or antagonistically, which would reduce the control of pest populations. In a field experiment we enhanced predation by adding simulated leaf domatia to plants. Leaf domatia are small structures that often harbor predaceous arthropods that are potentially beneficial to the plant. We also manipulated hos...
