“…In arboviruses, which infect animals, the insect’s saliva may contain substances that assist the virus in transmission to its host, a phenomenon termed Saliva Activated Transmission (SAT). Such factors are just now being discovered in the saliva of insect vectors of plant viruses, though it has been reported that aggregates of viruliferous aphids on a healthy host can form higher concentration of the virus in their feeding area than the rest of the plant [15,73,74,75,76,77]. On the other hand, no insect vector that has the ability to resist virus ingestion and/or transmission exists, although examples of viruses naturally losing their transmission ability have been described [70,71,78,79,80,81].…”
