Whitefly endosymbionts: IPM opportunity or tilting at windmills?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Journal of Pest Science"
DOI: 10.1007/s10340-021-01451-7
Abstract: Whiteflies are sap-sucking insects responsible for high economic losses. They colonize hundreds of plant species and cause direct feeding damage and indirect damage through transmission of devastating viruses. Modern agriculture has seen a history of… read more here.
