Figure 1.
Mean relative growth rate (RGR) of B. tabaci females reared on standard diet (control) or high-nitrogen diet.
Black bars and white bars indicate infected and noninfected females, respectively. Replicate numbers are noted within the columns. Values are means±SE. The experiment was performed three times (trial 1–3). For each paired comparison (± infection), asterisks indicate a significant difference (*, p<0.05) based on a t-test.
Figure 2.
Mean relative growth rate (RGR) of B. tabaci females reared on standard diet (control) or low-nitrogen diet.
Black bars and white bars indicate infected and noninfected females, respectively. Replicate numbers are noted within the columns. Values are means±SE. The experiment was performed three times (trial 1–3). For each paired comparison (± infection), asterisks indicate a significant difference (*, p<0.05; **, p<0.01) based on a t-test.
Figure 3.
Mean relative growth rate (RGR) of B. tabaci females reared on standard diet (control) or no-nitrogen diet.
Black bars and white bars indicate infected and noninfected females, respectively. Replicate numbers are noted within the columns. Values are means±SE. The experiment was performed three times (trial 1–3). For each paired comparison (± infection), asterisks indicate a significant difference (*, p<0.05; **, p<0.01) based on a t-test.
Figure 4.
Total amino acid content of adult B. tabaci females.
Field collected whiteflies are represented by white bars and lab reared whiteflies by black bars. Values are means+SE. Means followed by the same letter are not significantly different at p<0.05 according to ANOVA.
