Nature, 1873 IN his interesting communication respecting the relations supposed to exist between Trigona and Membracis, Dr. H. Muller appears to have overlooked the Abbe Boisier's observation (Kirby and Spence, “Introduction to Entomology,” 7th edition, p. 384) that hive-bees will collect the honey-dew excreted by Aphides.

Aphid transmission of nanoviruses [PDF]
Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 2020 AbstractThe genus Nanovirus consists of plant viruses that predominantly infect legumes leading to devastating crop losses. Nanoviruses are transmitted by various aphid species. The transmission occurs in a circulative nonpropagative manner. It was long suspected that a virus‐encoded helper factor would be needed for successful transmission by aphids ...

Plant Genes Benefitting Aphids—Potential for Exploitation in Resistance Breeding
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Aphids are phloem sap-feeding insects common as pests in various crops. Here we review 62 omics studies of aphid/plant interactions to search for indications of how aphids may manipulate the plants to make them more suitable as hosts, i.e.

Nature, 1872 AMONG other misstatements in Dr. Bree's “Fallacies of Darwinism,” so ably criticised by Mr. Wallace in NATURE of July 25, occurs the following:—“All the stories about aphides being treated as milch-cows are myths, the result of inaccurate observation” (p. 166).

The nutritional value of aphid honeydew for non-aphid parasitoids [PDF]
Basic and Applied Ecology, 2008 Intake of sugar-rich foods by adult parasitoids is crucial for their reproductive success. Hence, the availability of suitable foods should enhance the efficacy of parasitoids as biological control agents. In situations where nectar is not readily available, homopteran honeydew can be a key alternative food source.

Improved Genome Assembly and Annotation of the Soybean Aphid (Aphis glycines Matsumura)
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020 Aphids are an economically important insect group due to their role as plant disease vectors. Despite this economic impact, genomic resources have only been generated for a small number of aphid species.

Plant Direct, 2022 Previously, sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) was developed as a vector for transient expression of heterologous genes in Zea mays (maize). Here, we show that SCMV can also be applied for virus‐induced gene silencing (VIGS) of endogenous maize genes ...
