This study provides convincing evidence for genetic differentiation (measured by electrophoresis) among local (geographical) populations of the whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, in Colombia. These differences are undetectable by conventional taxonomic procedures, but their existence implies that B. tabaci is genetically differentiated and different variants may respond differently to control measures. This finding is very important since the entire global population of B. tabaci is considered one and the same species. The presence of intraspecific differentiation should be taken seriously when quarantine measures are considered. In Israel there was no indication of intraspecific differentiation according to host-plant or geography, but there was a clear difference in enzymatic pattern between samples from insecticide-treated commercial fields and samples from unsprayed control populations. Their difference may be used in monitoring the frequencies of resistant individuals in field populations. In addition to the analysis of genetic variation within one species, electrophoretic markers were developed which can be used to identify adults of different whitefly species in Israel and in Colo

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate. · Source: award and document years
Axis: years in documents. The start year comes from first seen; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
Who started the program, and which administration it began under. Timing only; it does not say who started it. · Source: initiative records, start year
Began during the Ronald Reagan administration (1981–1989). Based on its first seen, 1983. This places the program in time only; it does not mean that administration started it.
No document or official record says which initiative or administration launched this program.
