Whiteflies, Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera), are pests causing economic damage to many crops,
capable of transmitting hundreds of plant vector-borne viruses. They are believed to secrete …

The whitefly Bemisia tabaci is a piercing-sucking herbivore that reduces the yields of crops
both by feeding on plants and transmitting plant viruses. Like most plant feeders, B. tabaci …

The Bemisia tabaci species complex (whitefly) causes enormous agricultural losses. These
phloem-feeding insects induce feeding damage and transmit a wide range of dangerous …

SARD 1 is an activator of plant immunity that promotes production of the hormone salicylic
acid (SA) and activation of defense gene expression. SARD 1 itself is strongly inducible by …

Aphids induce many transcriptional perturbations in their host plants, but the signalling
cascades responsible and the effects on plant resistance are largely unknown. Through a …

The WRKY family of plant transcription factors controls several types of plant stress
responses. Arabidopsis WRKY8, localized to the nucleus, is mainly induced by abscissic …

Phloem-feeding whiteflies in the species complex Bemisia tabaci cause extensive crop
damage worldwide. One of the reasons for their “success” is their ability to suppress the …

Although several wheat genes differentially expressed during the Russian wheat aphid
resistance response have recently been identified, their requirement for and specific role in …

Cross‐talk between signal transduction pathways is a central feature of the tightly regulated
plant defense signaling network. The potential synergism or antagonism between defense …

Summary Arabidopsis RESISTANCE TO POWDERY MILDEW 8.1 (RPW8. 1) is an important
tool for engineering broad‐spectrum disease resistance against multiple pathogens. Ectopic …
