Attine ants have as a behavioral feature, the cultivation of "fungal gardens" for nutritional purposes. However, the integrity of the colonies can be compromised when the growth of Escovopsis fungus is observed, which is a specialized parasite of these gardens. One of the strategies to protect colonies is the establishment of a symbiotic relationship with actinobacteria, mainly of the gen…
The ants of the Attini tribe have developed over time a relationship of domestication and later mutualism with Basidiomycete fungi, which are grown in fungal gardens and serve as the main food source of these ants. Several microorganisms can parasitize the colonies of these farmer insects, and the ants have created physical and chemical defense mechanisms against these invaders. However, …
The silverleaf whitefly, Bemisia tabaci Gennadius biotype B (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), is one of the main pests in fields and greenhouses worldwide. This species causes great economic losses in vegetable crops; beans, soybean, cotton, and peanuts plantations; and ornamentals plants. This insect damages plants by direct feeding and transmission of numerous bacteria and phytopathogenic virus…
