Bemisia tabaci: A new clip-cage for biological studies

This new clip-cage has been designed in our laboratory. It is a transparent plastic truncated cone clip-cage (3.6 cm x 2.6 cm diameter; 4 cm high). A very thin polypropylene mesh (30 holes/inch) is attached to the bottom by paraffin wax. We have used this clip-cage attached to the under surface of t...

Sumario:This new clip-cage has been designed in our laboratory. It is a transparent plastic truncated cone clip-cage (3.6 cm x 2.6 cm diameter; 4 cm high). A very thin polypropylene mesh (30 holes/inch) is attached to the bottom by paraffin wax. We have used this clip-cage attached to the under surface of the leaves in our studies on the biology of both B and Q biotypes of Bemisia tabaci with excellent results.
