Dietary range varies among Aphis craccivora populations associated with different host plants: Insights into the alfalfa–cowpea aphid system in Spain

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 724-736, July 2025.
We conducted host specialization trials with three different Aphis craccivora populations. They revealed the generalist nature of the alfalfa‐origin population, which thrived when shifted to both black locust and vetch. Conversely, populations originating from black locust and vetch showed high host specialization, performing poorly when shifted to ...

Within‐generational but not cross‐generational effects of host plant on Myzus persicae performance and preferences

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 756-766, July 2025.
Green peach aphids (Myzus persicae) maintained on different host plants (bok choy, clover and potato) for 15 generations were evaluated on each host plant to understand the impacts of within‐generational and cross‐generational effects on their performance.

Strategies used by two apterous strains of the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum for passive dispersal

Biology Open, 2016
Wingless forms of aphids are relatively sedentary, and have a limited ability to migrate or disperse. However, they can drop off hosts or walk away if disturbed, or their food quality or quantity become deteriorated. Earlier, we found that the pea aphid,

Interactions between host plant quality and non‐consumptive predator effects on oviposition and larval behaviour of Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 148-159, May 2025.
Abstract The presence of predators can induce non‐consumptive effects on prey that result in subsequent changes to prey behaviour and defence. We investigate the interaction between top‐down non‐consumptive effects of various stages of the predator Coccinella septempunctata L.(Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) (larvae and adult) and bottom‐up effects of host ...

Sexual calling behaviour, and the effects of immediate mating history and consexual presence in the seven‐spot ladybird, Coccinella septempunctata

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 5, Page 393-402, May 2025.
To attract mates, several coleopteran taxa release volatile sex pheromones via a behaviour termed calling. We studied a postulated calling behaviour in the seven‐spot ladybird Coccinella septempunctata L. for the first time. We also investigated the effects of immediate mating history and the presence of conspecifics on calling behaviour.

Pea aphid alates can modify phototaxis in different development stages to assist their host distribution

Frontiers in Physiology, 2016
The pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), shows wing polyphenism (winged and wingless morphs) in its life cycle. The winged morph is adapted for dispersal; its two developmental adult stages (for dispersal and reproduction) are ...

Harshing the Vibes: Behavioural Responses to Predation and Deterrent Vibrational Playback in Scolypopa Australis (Hemiptera: Ricaniidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 4, Page 598-608, May 2025.
ABSTRACT The use of substrate borne vibrational playback to control insect pests is a rapidly growing line of research targeting many problematic species. Among the control approaches currently being tested, vibrational deterrent playbacks that aim to prevent feeding and to drive pests away from the target area are comparatively under‐explored.

Actividad repelente del aceite esencial de Eucalyptus globulus Labill. (Myrtaceae) y Mentha x piperita L. (Lamiaceae) en Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

Dominguezia, 2019
En la región semiárida pampeana Acyrthosiphon pisum Harris afecta la implantación de las pasturas de alfalfa reduciendo el stand de plantas. La principal forma de control es por medio de insecticidas sintéticos.

Legume‐Colonising Aphids as Potential PNYDV‐Vectors: Reproduction and Infestation Dynamics in Two Different Field Bean Varieties

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 3, Page 442-451, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Faba bean can be infected by Pea necrotic yellow dwarf virus (PNYDV), a novel pathogen throughout Europe, and transmitted persistently by several legume‐colonising aphid species. Recent field screenings in Austria and Germany of different faba bean varieties were encouraging as consistently the lowest viral symptom development in the variety ...

Seasonal Abundance of Primary Parasitoids and Hyperparasitoids Associated with Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) and Acyrthosiphon kondoi Shinji (Homoptera: Aphididae) on Alfalfa.

Japanese Journal of Applied Entomology and Zoology, 2002
Seasonal abundance of primary parasitoids and hyperparasitoids associated with Acyrthosiphon spp. was studied in an alfalfa field in 2000. Two species of primary parasitoids were recorded: Aphidius ervi and Praon barbatum. Mean parasitism by A. ervi and P. barbatum peaked at 3.5% on 10 July and 13.0% on 29 June.
