“…Furthermore, some simulation models have been developed to predict the population dynamics of the greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood), and its parasitoid, Encarsia formosa Gahan; these models have proven useful in evaluating the biological control system (Yano, 1989a, b;Baumgärtner and Yano, 1990;van Roermund et al, 1997). Life-history parameters are essential for population modeling (van Roermund and van Lenteren, 1992), and that of B. argentifolii will be used to develop a simulation model of the population dynamics of this pest (Drost et al, 1998). In addition, host plants have important effects on development, mortality and fecundity rates in whitefly population dynamics (Baumgärtner and Yano, 1990).…”

The silverleaf whitefly, Bemisia argentifolii Bellows et Perring (Bellows et al., 1994), also known as B-biotype of B. tabaci (Gennadius) (Byrne and Miller, 1990), has become one of the most serious agricultural pests in the world. This whitefly is polyphagous and infests a broad range of crops, including eggplant, cucumber, squash, tomato and sweet potato . Damage by B. argentifolii consists of direct feeding damage, deposition of large quantities of honeydew, plant physiological disorders, such as squash silverleaf disorder in pumpkin and irregular ripening of tomato fruit, and transmission of several plant viruses (Matsui, 1995).In Japan, B. argentifolii was first found to infest poinsettia (Ohto, 1990) and since has infested many plants, including cucumber, eggplant, sweet pepper and tomato. The biology of B. argentifolii has been studied extensively (Bethke et al., 1991;Enkegaard, 1993;Simmons, 1994;Wagner, 1995;Tsai and Wang, 1996;Wang and Tsai, 1996;Yee and Toscano, 1996;Nava-Camberos et al., 2001), although, with the exception of a study by Tsueda and Tsuchida (1998), the biology of the Japanese B. argentifolii population has not been investigated.To develop a successful integrated pest management (IPM) program for its host crops, it is critical to understand the life-history parameters of B. ar- Appl.

“…However, the taxonomy of this pest remains confused and controversial (Naranjo & Ellsworth, 2001), and we refer to Perring (2001) for a recent discussion of the Bemisia tabaci species complex. Bemisia causes direct feeding damage, vectors a number of devastating plant viruses, reduces the quality of the harvested product as a result of the excretion of honeydew, and can be the source of various other problems (Drost et al, 1998).…”

Abstract. Life-history parameters (juvenile development time, adult longevity, host instar preference and rate of parasitism) of four parasitoids of Bemisia argentifolii (two strains of Encarsia formosa (D and B), Eretmocerus eremicus and Eretmocerus mundus) were studied in the laboratory. At 15°C juvenile development time was the shortest for E. formosa B (48 days), longest for E. eremicus (79.3 days) and intermediate for E. formosa D (62.8 days) and E. mundus (64 days) at 15°C. With increase in temperature, development time decreased to around 14 days for all species/strains at 32°C. The lower developmental threshold for development was 11.5, 8.1, 13.0 and 11.5°C for E. formosa D, E. formosa B, E. eremicus and E. mundus, respectively. E. formosa D and B, and E. mundus all appeared to prefer to parasitize 3 rd instar nymphs. The presence of hosts shortened adult longevity in most of the parasitoids, with the exception of E. formosa B, which lived longer than other species/strains irrespective of the presence of hosts. At 15°C daily parasitism was very low by all parasitoids. The two Encarsia strains had a constant, but low rate of reproduction during adult life, while the two Eretmocerus species had a very high rate of reproduction when one-day old, which then decreased very quickly. Lifetime fecundity, estimated using a non-linear model, indicated that it was higher for the two Encarsia strains than for the Eretmocerus species. Life history parameters reported in the literature for the four parasitoids are reviewed and compared with our results. Finally, the potential value for the biological control of whiteflies on greenhouse crops of parasitoids having either a high reproductive rate over a short period (Eretmocerus spp.) or a low rate of reproduction over a long period (Encarsia spp.) is discussed.

-Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) is one of the most important tomato pests in Brazil and causes severe losses due to the sap suction, the induction of the irregular ripening of the fruit and virus transmission. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of exudates released by the glandular trichomes on the development of B. tabaci biotype B on eight tomato genotypes, under greenhouse conditions. The experiment was arranged as a factorial scheme (genotype x exudate) in a randomized block design, with three replications, being the genotypes evaluated in two conditions (with and without exudate). Whitefly adults were transferred to a voile cage for 24h. The variables evaluated were number of eggs and viability, incubation period, number of nymphs, duration and viability of the nymphal stage. Trichome counts and determination of pH and acylglucose content were made for all the genotypes. Intact leaflets of LA716 were less accepted for oviposition than leaflets without exudate, which suggests an antixenotic effect. Antixenotic resistance in LA1739 and PI134417 was not associated to the glandular exudate. The effect of exudates on the insect oviposition was explained by the acylglucose content. The pH showed secondary role on the whitefly oviposition. Trichomes density improved the insect development. LA1584 reduced the insect survival and increased its cycle, besides promoting an intermediate oviposition. For this reason, it can be useful in breeding programs. However, further studies are needed to determine the potential of this genotype and hybrids for future utilization in integrated pest management.KEY WORDS: Lycopersicon, silverleaf whitefly, Bemisia argentifolii RESUMO -Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) é uma das principais pragas do tomateiro no Brasil, provocando severas perdas devido à sucção de seiva, indução do amadurecimento irregular dos frutos e transmissão de viroses. O objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar o efeito de tricomas glandulares no desenvolvimento de B. tabaci biótipo B em oito genótipos de tomateiro, em casa de vegetação. Utilizou-se o delineamento de blocos ao acaso, em arranjo fatorial (genótipo x exsudato), com três repetições, sendo os genótipos avaliados na condição com e sem exsudato. Adultos da mosca-branca foram transferidos para uma gaiola de voil, onde permaneceram durante 24h. As variáveis avaliadas foram número de ovos e viabilidade, período de incubação, número de ninfas, duração e sobrevivência da fase ninfal. Efetuouse a contagem de tricomas e a determinação do pH e teor de acilglicose para todos os genótipos. Na presença de exsudato, LA716 proporcionou redução na oviposição do inseto, o que sugere efeito antixenótico. Resistência antixenótica em LA1739 e PI134417 não foi associada ao exsudato glandular. O efeito do exsudato na oviposição do inseto foi explicado pelo teor de acilglicose. O pH apresentou papel secundário na oviposição da mosca-branca. A densidade de tricomas favoreceu o desenvolvimento do inseto. LA1584 destacou-se pela redução na sobrevivência do inseto e...
