Resistência de genótipos de tomateiro à infecção com o Tomato chlorosis virus e tolerância à doença

Performance of Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 and Trialeurodes vaporariorum on Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) infected plants

“…Tomato chlorosis virus is an important Crinivirus infecting tomato in greenhouses and in the field. Previous studies report that ToCV can cause losses as high as 52% on tomato in Brazil (Córdova, ; Inoue‐Nagata et al., ). A recent survey has found that T. vaporariorum is primarily distributed in the south and southeast region, whereas B. tabaci MEAM1 is widely distributed across the country (L. A.…”

“…on tomato in Brazil (Córdova, 2015;Inoue-Nagata et al, 2016). Both whiteflies are present in Brazil for at least 25 years (Lourenção & Nagai, 1994;Russell, 1963), more than a decade before the first report of the crinivirus ToCV in 2006 (Barbosa et al, 2008 to be able to retain ToCV for at least 4-6 days (Orfanidou, Pappi, Efthimiou, Katis, & Maliogka, 2016;Shi et al, 2018), longer than that reported for MEAM1.…”

“…Years later, ToCV was also reported infecting tomato in five additional states of Brazil: Minas Gerais (MG), Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Espírito Santo (ES), Goiás (GO) and Bahia (BA) (Barbosa, Costa, Gioria, & Rezende, ). The damage caused by ToCV in tomatoes in Brazil can reach 52% depending on the genotypes (Córdova, ; Inoue‐Nagata et al., ). In addition to tomato, ToCV also infects sweet pepper (Navas‐Castillo et al., ), potato (Freitas, Nardin, Shimoyama, Souza‐Dias, & Rezende, ), eggplant and scarlet eggplant (Fonseca et al., ).…”
