Background  MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, conserved, non-coding RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression.  Bemisia tabaci  (Gennadius) B and Q are two invasive and dominant whiteflies, and  B. tabaci  Q has been displacing B in China. Differences in biological traits (fecundity, host range, resistance to insecticides, etc.) as affected by miRNAs might be involved in the displacement. In this study, we performed high-throughput sequencing to identify miRNAs in  B. tabaci  B and Q.    Results  We identified 170 conserved miRNAs and 15 novel candidates, and found significant differences in the expression of miRNAs between  B. tabaci  B and Q.    Conclusion  Expression levels of miRNAs differ in  B. tabaci  B vs. Q. Additional research is needed to determine whether these differences are related to differences in the biology of  B. tabaci  B and Q, and whether these differences help explain why  B. tabaci  Q is displacing B in China.
