Research Progress on Piercing-sucking Pests and Endosymbionts
The piercing-sucking pests can suck the sap of plants. After infestation,plants may become curled,withered,and develop yellow-ish lesions. Endosymbionts are ubiquitously distributed in piercing-sucking pests and are closely related to their hosts. Mastering various infor-mation about endosymbiotic bacteria in piercing sucking pests and utilizing it is crucial for controlling pests and reducing the spread of viruses by pests. This paper reviews the diversity of endosymbiotic bacteria in piercing sucking pests,the relationship between endosymbiotic bacteria and hosts,and the use of endosymbiotic bacteria for pest control,in order to further achieve green pest control in tea gardens through the regu-lation of piercing sucking pests by endosymbiotic bacteria.
