Mastreviruses are important pathogens on many crops and they are transmitted in a persistent manner by leafhoppers. For experimental studies on mastreviruses, transmission with leafhoppers remains as an important method for virus inoculation. Here, we describe a protocol for setting up a culture of the leafhopper vector Psammotettix alienus and efficient leafhopper-mediated transmission of wheat dwarf virus.

摘要

Mastreviruses are important pathogens on many crops and they are transmitted in a persistent manner by leafhoppers. For experimental studies on mastreviruses, transmission with leafhoppers remains as an important method for virus inoculation. Here, we describe a protocol for setting up a culture of the leafhopper vector Psammotettix alienus and efficient leafhopper-mediated transmission of wheat dwarf virus.
