“…As chilli is the non-preferred host for whiteflies, in free choice assay we cannot ensure vector infection on all the plants and in no choice essay, a single plant viruliferous whiteflies are introduced on a single plant (enclosed in a small bottle cage). Whitefly colony establishment and maintenance, to transmit chilli leaf curl viruses to test entries for screening have been successfully utilized ( Kumar et al., 2011 ; Padhi et al., 2017 ; Srivastava et al., 2017 ; Sharma et al., 2018 ; Srinivas and Thomas, 2018 ; Thakur et al., 2018 ; Barchenger et al., 2019 ; Maurya et al., 2019 ; Manisha et al., 2020 ; Yadav et al., 2020 ). Graft inoculation has been used to screen for TYLCV-resistant plants with high transmission efficiency ( Fargette et al., 1996 ).…”

Chilli leaf curl virus disease caused by begomoviruses, has emerged as a major threat to global chilli production, causing severe yield losses and economic harm. Begomoviruses are a highly successful and emerging group of plant viruses that are primarily transmitted by whiteflies belonging to the Bemisia tabaci complex. The most effective method for mitigating chilli leaf curl virus disease losses is breeding for host resistance to Begomovirus. This review highlights the current situation of chilli leaf curl virus disease and associated begomoviruses in chilli production, stressing the significant issues that breeders and growers confront. In addition, the various breeding methods used to generate begomovirus resistant chilli cultivars, and also the complicated connections between the host plant, vector and the virus are discussed. This review highlights the importance of resistance breeding, emphasising the importance of multidisciplinary approaches that combine the best of traditional breeding with cutting-edge genomic technologies. subsequently, the article highlights the challenges that must be overcome in order to effectively deploy begomovirus resistant chilli varieties across diverse agroecological zones and farming systems, as well as understanding the pathogen thus providing the opportunities for improving the sustainability and profitability of chilli production.
