Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), commonly known as silverleaf whitefly, is a polyphagous pest and is listed as one of the world’s 100 worst invasive species. It is known to feed on more than 1000 plant species and vector over 120 plant-damaging viruses. This publication by the University of Florida provides a management program for nursery and ornamental plant growers to aid in their efforts to minimize selection for insecticide resistance irrespective of whitefly biotype while helping to achieve top-quality plant materials.
