Effects of cis-Jasmone Treatment of Brassicas on Interactions With Myzus persicae Aphids and Their Parasitoid Diaeretiella rapae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
There is a need to develop new ways of protecting plants against aphid attack. Here, we investigated the effect of a plant defence activator, cis-jasmone (CJ), in a range of cultivars of Brassica napus, Brassica rapa and Brassica oleracea.

Tripartite interactions of Barley yellow dwarf virus, Sitobion avenae and wheat varieties. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The tripartite interactions in a pathosystem involving wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), the Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV), and the BYDV vector aphid Sitobion avenae were studied under field conditions to determine the impact of these interactions on ...

JNK pathway plays a key role in the immune system of the pea aphid and is regulated by microRNA-184

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2020
Different from holometabolous insects, the hemipteran species such as pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum exhibit reduced immune responses with the absence of the genes coding for antimicrobial peptide (AMP), immune deficiency (IMD), peptidoglycan recognition ...

An aphid RNA transcript migrates systemically within plants and is a virulence factor

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance The green peach aphid Myzus persicae causes yield losses of diverse crops and vectors more than 100 pathogens. We found that M. persicae colonizes nine divergent plant species, indicating that it is a true generalist, unlike many other aphid

Methyl Salicylate Can Benefit Ornamental Pest Control, and Does Not Alter Per Capita Predator Consumption at Close-Range

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Methyl salicylate (MeSA) is an herbivore-induced plant volatile widely tested for attracting natural enemies for pest control. MeSA is commercially sold as slow-release lures or as a spray.

Rapid transcriptional plasticity of duplicated gene clusters enables a clonally reproducing aphid to colonise diverse plant species

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2017
The prevailing paradigm of host-parasite evolution is that arms races lead to increasing specialisation via genetic adaptation. Insect herbivores are no exception and the majority have evolved to colonise a small number of closely related host species ...

Aphid Species, Their Natural Enemies in Vegetables from Erzincan, Turkey: First Record of the Parasitoid Wasp Aphelinus mali (Haldeman) parasitizing Lipaphis erysimi (Kaltenbach)*

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Sciences, 2021
Aphid species, their parasitoids and predators on vegetables (bean, cucumber, eggplant, melon, okra, pepper, pumpkin, tomato and watermelon) grown in Erzincan province, Turkey were determined.

The semiochemistry of aphids

open access: yesNatural Product Reports, 2013
Chemical signalling between aphids (small insects that suck plant sap) formating and avoidance of antagonistic organisms, and between aphids and plants for location of hosts or avoidance of unsuitable plants, employs minute levels of small lipophilic molecules (SLMs), termed "semiochemicals". These semiochemicals, which include sex and alarm pheromones,

Plant response to feeding aphids promotes aphid dispersal [PDF]

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 2018
AbstractPlant responses against biotic stress agents are affected by a number of environmental conditions, including the presence of other pests and pathogens. Moreover, the impact of infestation on subsequent plant colonization by conspecifics can vary, reflecting the high diversity in the co‐evolutionary processes shaping host‐plant interactions ...

Wing dimorphism in aphids [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 2006
Many species of insects display dispersing and nondispersing morphs. Among these, aphids are one of the best examples of taxa that have evolved specialized morphs for dispersal versus reproduction. The dispersing morphs typically possess a full set of wings as well as a sensory and reproductive physiology that is adapted to flight and reproducing in a ...
