1Species Concepts as Applied to the Whitefly Bemisia tabaci Systematics:How Many Species Are There?显示文摘The worldwide distribution and extensive genetic diversity of the whitefly,Bemisia tabaci,has long been recognized.However,the levels of separation within B.tabaci and the nomenclature of the various genetic groups have been a subject of debate.Recent phylogenetic analyses indicate that B.tabaci is a complex composed of 28 morphologically indistinguishable species.In this article,we first review the debate and difficulties associated with B.tabaci's taxonomy and systematics,and argue for the need to apply the biological species concept in order to elucidate B.tabaci's systematics.We summarize the accumulated genetic and behavioural data on reproductive incompatibilities evident amongst phylogenetic mtCOI groups of B.tabaci.Crossing studies have been conducted with 14 of the 28 putative species covering 54 reciprocal inter-species pairs,and observations on mating behaviour have been conducted for seven species pairs.Data from both crossing trials and behavioural observations indicate a consistent pattern of reproductive isolation among the putative species.We then discuss the technical and conceptual complexities associated with crossing experiments and behavioural observations designed to reveal reproductive incompatibility.Finally,we elaborate on a strategy for further clarifying the pattern of reproductive isolation between B.tabaci groups and propose future research directions on the systematics of this complex.LIU Shu-sheng John Colvin Paul J De Barro 2012Journal of Integrative Agriculture2012,11,2:76
2Bemisia tabaci Phylogenetic Groups in India and the Relative Transmission Efficacy of Tomato leaf curl Bangalore virus by an Indigenous and an Exotic Population显示文摘Bemisia tabaci adults from various host-plant species were collected from 31 regions across India.266 B.tabaci samples were first screened by RAPD-PCR to examine molecular variability and to select individuals with different fingerprints.Host-plant and region of collection were then used to select 25 individuals for PCR amplification and sequencing of their partial mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit one(mtCOI)genes.Pairwise comparisons with mtCOI consensus sequences showed that the majority of these samples had <3.5% sequence divergence from groups currently termed Asia I,Asia II-5,Asia II-7,and Asia II-8.The biotype-B B.tabaci from India clustered into the Middle East-Asia Minor 1 group.A new group of B.tabaci from Coimbatore,collected from pumpkin,was related most closely to the Asia I group(6.2% sequence divergence from the consensus Asia I sequence).To increase our understanding of the epidemiology of tomato leaf curl disease(ToLCD)and the key B.tabaci genetic groups involved in virus spread,the indigenous Asia I and the exotic biotype-B population from South India were used to carry out transmission experiments using Tomato leaf curl Bangalore virus(ToLCBV).The acquisition access periods(AAP),inoculation access periods(IAP),latent periods(LP),and ToLCBV transmission efficiencies of the two populations were compared and the biotype-B had the more efficient transmission characteristics.These results are discussed in relation to recent changes in the epidemiology of tomato leaf curl disease in South India.R V Chowda-Reddy M Kirankumar Susan E Seal V Muniyappa Girish B Valand M R Govindappa John Colvin 2012Journal of Integrative Agriculture2012,11,2:8
3Next Generation Transcriptome Sequencing and Quantitative Real-Time PCR Technologies for Characterisation of the Bemisia tabaci Asia 1 mtCOI Phylogenetic Clade显示文摘A programme of functional genomics research is underway at the University of Greenwich,UK,to develop and apply genomics technologies to characterise an economically-important but under-researched Bemisia tabaci(Hemiptera:Aleyrodidae),the Asia 1 mtCOI phylogenetic group.A comparison of this putative species from India with other important B.tabaci populations and insect species may provide targets for the development of more effective whitefly control strategies.As a first step,next-generation sequencing(NGS)has been used to survey the transcriptome of adult female whitefly,with high quality RNA preparations being used to generate cDNA libraries for NGS using the Roche 454 Titanium DNA sequencing platform.Contig assemblies constructed from the resultant sequences(301 094 reads)using the software program CLC Genomics Workbench generated 3 821 core contigs.Comparison of a selection of these contigs with related sequences from other B.tabaci genetic groups has revealed good alignment for some genes(e.g.,HSP90)but misassemblies in other datasets(e.g.,the vitellogenin gene family),highlighting the need for manual curation as well as collaborative international efforts to obtain accurate assemblies from the existing next generation sequence datasets.Nevertheless,data emerging from the NGS has facilitated the development of accurate and reliable methods for analysing gene expression based on quantitative real-time RT-PCR,illustrating the power of this approach to enable rapid expression analyses in an organism for which a complete genome sequence is currently lacking.Susan Seal Mitulkumar V Patel Carl Collins John Colvin David Bailey 2012Journal of Integrative Agriculture2012,11,2:2

6Whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism and mating compatibility studies reveal the presence of distinct species in sub-Saharan Africa Bemisia tabaci whiteflies显示文摘In sub-Saharan Africa cassava growing areas,two members of the Bemisia tabaci species complex termed sub-Saharan Africa 1(SSA1)and SSA2 have been reported as the prevalent whiteflies associated with the spread of viruses that cause cassava mosaic disease(CMD)and cassava brown streak disease(CBSD)pandemics.At the peak of CMD pandemic in the late 1990s,SSA2 was the prevalent whitefly,although its numbers have diminished over the last two decades with the resurgence of SSA1 whiteflies.Three SSA1 subgroups(SGI to SG3)are the predominant whiteflies in East Africa and vary in distribution and biological properties.Mating compatibility between SSA1 subgroups and SSA2 whiteflies was reported as the possible driver for the resurgence of SSA 1 whiteflies.In this study,a combination of both phylogenomic methods and reciprocal crossing experiments were applied to determine species status of SSA1 subgroups and SSA2 white-fly populations.Phylogenomic analyses conducted with 26548205 bp whole genome single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)and the full mitogenomes clustered SSA1 subgroups together and separate from SSA2 species.Mating incompatibility between SSA1 subgroups and SSA2 further demonstrated their distinctiveness from each other.Phylogenomic analyses conducted with SNPs and mitogenomes also revealed different genetic relationships among SSA1 subgroups.The former clustered SSA 1-SGI and SSA1-SG2 to-gether but separate from SSA1-SG3,while the latter clustered SSA1-SG2 and SSA1-SG3 together but separate from SSA 1-SG1.Mating compatibility was observed between SSA 1-SGI and SSA1-SG2,while incompatibility occurred between SSA 1-SGI and SSA1-SG3,and SSA 1-SG2 and SSA 1-SG3.Mating results among SSA 1 subgroups were coherent with phylogenomics results based on SNPs but not the full mitogenomes.Furthermore,this study revealed that the secondary endosymbiont--did not mediate reproductive success in the crossing assays carried out.Overall,using genome wide SNPs together with reciprocal crossings assays,this study established accurate genetic relationships among cassava-colonizing populations,illustrating that SSA1 and SSA2 are distinct species while at least two species occur within SSA1 species.Habibu Mugerwa Hua-Ling Wang Peter Sseruwagi Susan Seal John Colvin 2021Insect Science2021,28,6:0
7African Cassava Whitefly,Bemisia tabaci,Resistance in African and South American Cassava Genotypes显示文摘The whitefly,Bemisia tabaci,is a major pest of cassava,particularly in Africa where it is responsible both for the transmission of plant viruses and,increasingly,for direct damage due to feeding by high populations.To date,there have been no practical solutions to combat this emerging problem,due to the inability of the subsistence farmers that grow cassava to afford expensive inputs such as insecticides.A programme of research was carried out linking institutes in Africa,the UK and South America,to identify possible resistance sources in cassava to the whitefly,Bemisia tabaci.The South American genotype MEcu 72 and several Ugandan cassava landraces including Ofumba Chai,Nabwire 1 and Mercury showed good levels of resistance to B.tabaci.Field and screen-house experiments showed that all of the improved,high-yielding cassava mosaic disease(CMD)resistant cassava genotypes assessed were highly susceptible to B.tabaci and supported high populations of all life stages.These data support the hypothesis that the continuing high populations of cassava B.tabaci in Uganda are due,in part,to the widespread adoption of CMD-resistant cassava varieties during the CMD pandemic.They also show that the whitefly,Aleurotrachelus socialis,resistance present in the South American cassava genotypes could have broader applicability in the Old World.Christopher A Omongo Robert Kawuki Antony C Bellotti Titus Alicai Yona Baguma M N Maruthi Anton Bua John Colvin 2012Journal of Integrative Agriculture2012,11,2:0
8Socio-Economic and Scientific Impact Created by Whitefly-Transmitted,Plant-Virus Disease Resistant Tomato Varieties in Southern India显示文摘Research carried out to assess the impact of open-pollinated Tomato leaf curl virus(ToLCV)-resistant tomatoes and hybrids on the livelihoods of resource-poor farmers in Southern India is described and discussed.Three high-yielding ToLCV-resistant tomato varieties were developed initially using conventional breeding and screening techniques involving inoculation by ToLCV-viruliferous whitefly,Bemisia tabaci.In 2003 and 2004,respectively,these varieties were released officially by the Karnataka State Seed Committee and the Indian Ministry of Agriculture through notification in the Gazette of India.From 2003 to 2005,eleven seed companies bought breeder seed of the ToLCV-resistant varieties and used them to begin breeding F1 hybrids from them.Socio-economic studies carried out to assess the benefits obtained from growing the ToLCV-resistant varieties found that farmers could gain up to 10 times the profit by growing the ToLCV-resistant varieties compared to the pre-existing ToLCV-susceptible varieties.Adoption of ToLCV-resistant tomatoes was also associated with reduced pesticide use.Extra income from tomato sales was prioritised by farmers to pay for children's education,better nutrition and medicines.In a joint effort with the commercial seed sector in India,a promotional field day was organised in 2007.As well as the three ToLCV-resistant varieties,62 ToLCV-resistant hybrid tomatoes were exhibited during a farmer-field day by 17 commercial seed companies and several public institutes.Tomatoes with ToLCV-resistance are now grown widely in South India and seeds of the three open-pollinated varieties have been distributed to more than 12 countries.In 2007,a conservative estimate of the financial-benefit to cost of the research ratio was already more than 837:1.John Colvin N Nagaraju Carlos Moreno-Leguizamon R M Govindappa T B Manjunatha Reddy S A Padmaja Neena Joshi Peter M Hanson Susan E Seal V Muniyappa 2012Journal of Integrative Agriculture2012,11,2:0
