Solution(By Examveda Team)

The leaf curl virus of chili is transmitted by a White fly.
Chilli leaf curl virus is transmitted by whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci) and is a serious threat to chili fields.
Symptoms include the upward curling of leaves, plant stunting, and yield reductions. There are no treatments for viruses. Infected pepper plants cannot be cured; therefore, the focus should be on prevention.
