Abstract
The survival, transmission, and spread of most viruses depend on insect vectors. The potato ladybird Henosepilachna vigintioctomaculata transfers such potato viruses as PVY, PVM, PVX, PVS, PLRV, and PSTVd from diseased potato plants to healthy ones. The plant viruses were detected in all plants by the end of the experiment. The studied potato ladybird beetles had different orientation behavior while searching for food depending on whether they were infected with PVY, PVM, PVX, PVS, PLRV, and PSTVd or not. The infected H. vigintioctomaculata fed predominantly on healthy plants (72% of the beetles).
期刊介绍:
Far Eastern Entomologist is a rapid journal in English with Russian summary which publishes the original papers on entomology, including taxonomy, systematic, morphology, phylogeny, as well biology, ecology, and biogeography. The reviews, comprehensive or revisionary studies of the insects, the phylogeny and taxonomic catalogues are preferred of insect groups are especially welcome and have priority for the publication. The area covered by the journal is extended from Chukotka to South-East Asia and from Ural Mountains to Japan.
