The manner in which it emerges from the insect and comes to be inoculated into a plant is much less certainly known. It has generally been assumed that the saliva is the vehicle of the inoculation. For this assumption there is even now little direct evidence.enhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/Investigations of the mechanism of the transmission of plant viruses by insect vectors III.
