The transovarial transmission of two species of begomovirus, Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus (TYLCSV), through generations of Bemisia tabaci of the B and Q biotypes has been investigated. Different life stages of the progeny of viruliferous female whiteflies have been analysed by PCR detection of viral DNA and infectivity tests. Our results indicate that TYLCSV DNA can be detected in eggs and nymphs, and to a lesser extent adults, of the first-generation progeny. Infectivity tests using a large number of adult progeny of the first, second, and third generation indicate that even when viral DNA is inherited, infectivity is not. For TYLCV, neither viral DNA nor infectivity were associated with the progeny of viruliferous female whiteflies. Because the inherited viral DNA is unable to give rise to infections, the transovarial transmission of TYLCSV DNA appears to have no epidemiological relevance.
