The sweet potato whitefly Bemisia tabasi is one of the most important pests of various horticultural crops. In addition, B. tabaci is a vector of many plant-pathogenic viruses and cause a serious secondary damage to crop plants. Association of plant-pathogenic virus with vector insects is known to be effective on the transmission capacity, fecundity, longevity of vectors including whiteflies. However, the interactive mechanisms between virus and vector insects are still poorly understood. Recently, a serious damage caused by virus disease together with B. tabasi emergence was identified at tomato glasshouse in Tongyoung. We detected the signals of Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus (TYLCV) in tomato leaves and vector whiteflies using PCR amplification and confirmed its presence by those sequence comparison. To determine the effects of TYLCV acquisition on physiological status of vector whiteflies, transcript levels of genes that associated with metamorphosis, metabolism, stress and immune processes were compared between TYLCVinfected whiteflies and non-infected ones. Generally, the transcript levels of virus-infected whiteflies were lower than those of non-infected ones. In addition, the associations of endosymbiont levels within whiteflies were discussed in aspect of the acquisition and transmission of TYLCV.
