The fungus Aschersonia placenta FJSM was evaluated for control of the sweet potato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci. Bemisia tabaci nymphs (1st–4th instars) on tomato plants in the greenhouse (25–27 °C, 70%–85% relative humidity) were sprayed with suspensions containing 0, 104, 105, 106, 107, or 108 A. placenta FJSM conidia/mL. Mortality of fungus-treated 1st to 3rd instar nymphs ranged from 93% to 100% but was <25% for 4th instar nymphs; the fungus sporulated from 70% to 80% of the fungus-treated B. tabaci cadavers. LD50 and LD90 values decreased with time after treatment and increased with instar. LT50 values decreased with conidial concentration. The data were then described with time–dose–mortality models. The results indicate that A. placenta FJSM has potential as a mycoinsecticide for control of B. tabaci.

Whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci, biotype B) were able to transmit Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) 8 h after they were caged with infected tomato plants. The spread of TYLCV during this latent period was followed in organs thought to be involved in the translocation of the virus in B. tabaci. After increasing acquisition access periods (AAPs) on infected tomato plants, the stylets, the head, the midgut, a hemolymph sample, and the salivary glands dissected from individual insects were subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) without any treatment; the presence of TYLCV was assessed with virus-specific primers. TYLCV DNA was first detected in the head of B. tabaci after a 10-min AAP. The virus was present in the midgut after 40 min and was first detected in the hemolymph after 90 min. TYLCV was found in the salivary glands 5.5 h after it was first detected in the hemolymph. Subjecting the insect organs to immunocapture-PCR showed that the virus capsid protein was in the insect organs at the same time as the virus genome, suggesting that at least some TYLCV translocates as virions. Although females are more efficient as vectors than males, TYLCV was detected in the salivary glands of males and of females after approximately the same AAP.
