The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of an abiotic factor, i.e., lead at various concentrations (low causing a hormesis effect and causing high toxicity effects), on the generation of signalling molecules in pea (Pisum sativum L.

Benefits from below: silicon supplementation maintains legume productivity under predicted climate change scenarios [PDF]
Many studies demonstrate that elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations (eCO2) can promote root nodulation and biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) in legumes such as lucerne (Medicago sativa).

Starvation Stress Causes Body Color Change and Pigment Degradation in Acyrthosiphon pisum
The pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris), shows body color shifting from red to pale under starvation in laboratory conditions. These body color changes reflect aphid’s adaptation to environmental stress. To understand the color-shifting patterns, the

Expression pattern analysis of odorant-binding proteins in the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum [PDF]
Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are soluble proteins mediating chemoreception in insects. In previous research, we investigated the molecular mechanisms adopted by aphids to detect the alarm pheromone (E)-\u3b2-farnesene and we found that the recognition

To feed or not to feed: plant factors located in the epidermis, mesophyll, and sieve elements influence pea aphid's ability to feed on legume species. [PDF]
The pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris), a legume specialist, encompasses at least 11 genetically distinct sympatric host races. Each host race shows a preference for a certain legume species.

ESTABLISHMENT OF ACYRTHOSIPHON PISUM (HARRIS) (HEMIPTERA: APHIDIDAE) IN NEW SOUTH WALES [PDF]
Abstract Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) pea aphid was first detected in New South Wales at Yanco in January 1980. A survey conducted in March and May 1980 indicated that A. pisum was restricted to the southern areas of N.S.W. A second survey in June 1981 showed A. pisum had spread to all except 1 of the major lucerne growing areas of the State.

Potential use of a serpin from Arabidopsis for pest control. [PDF]
Although genetically modified (GM) plants expressing toxins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) protect agricultural crops against lepidopteran and coleopteran pests, field-evolved resistance to Bt toxins has been reported for populations of several ...
