The invention discloses a dot enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method for detecting bemisia tabaci carrying a tomato yellow leaf curl virus and application of the method. Field bemisia tabaci is collected, pretreated and grinded, monoclonal antibody of the tomato yellow leaf curl virus is used, the dot-ELISA method which is used for detecting virus transmission medium bemisia tabaci is established, a quick kit is developed and researched, and the tomato yellow leaf curl virus which is carried by the bemisia tabaci is detected. By the aid of the method, the virus carrying rate of the field bemisia tabaci can be surveyed in a large scale, and the field tomato yellow leaf curl disease outbreak trend is predicted. The method is quick, efficient, sensitive, special, high in flux and simple to operate. The tomato yellow leaf curl disease can be diagnosed quickly, predicted and controlled scientifically.
