Silverleaf Whitefly National Research, Action and Technology Transfer Plan, 1997-2001 (Formerly Sweetpotato Whitefly, Strain B): First Annual Review of the Second 5-Year Plan. Held in Charleston, South Carolina on February 3-5, 1998

摘要

This document describes mechanisms for current and future technology transfer andoutlines silverleaf whitefly research priority goals for the years 1997-2001. The plan encompasses studies on: (1) biology, ecology, and population dynamics; (2) viruses, epidemiology, and virus-vector interactions, (3) chemical control, biopesticides, resistance management, and application methods; (4) natural enemey ecology and biological control; (5) host plant resistance, physiological disorders, and host-plant interactions; and (6) integrated and areawide pest management approaches, and crop management systems. It also facilitates a coordinated technology transfer process and community-based partnership for implementation of areawide silverleaf whitefly IPM programs.
