Abstract:Tomato golden mosaic disease, caused by the tomato severe rugose virus (ToSRV), is one of the most serious tomato diseases. ToSRV is transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci MEAM1, from a wide range of hosts. Introducing ToSRV in commercial fields probably can occur by transporting the virus from distant locations. However, our hypothesis is that the inoculum causing epidemic development might be related to nearby sources. This study evaluated the short‐range flight distance of B. tabaci MEAM1 (marked with d… Show more
