The effect of within-crop habitat manipulations on the conservation biological control of aphids in field-grown lettuce [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Within-crop habitat manipulations have the potential to increase the biological control of pests in horticultural field crops. Wildflower strips have been shown to increase the abundance of natural enemies, but there is little evidence to date of an ...

NOTES ON APHIDES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Canadian Entomologist, 1873
The following notes were suggested by “Observations,” &c" on Aphides in The Canadian Entomologist for July, 1873. The species noticed on Rumex crispus seems to have very much resemblance to A rumicis of Europe; some other species of N. America do not differ from those of Europe, but have been probably introduced by means of shipping. With regard to

Differences in microbiota between two multilocus lineages of the sugarcane Aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) in the continental United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The sugarcane aphid (SCA), Melanaphis Sacchari (Zehntner) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), has been considered an invasive pest of sugarcane in the continental United States since 1977. Then, in 2013, SCA abruptly became a serious pest of U.S.

Global Responses of Resistant and Susceptible Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) to Sugarcane Aphid (Melanaphis sacchari)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The sugarcane aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) has emerged as a significant pest for sorghum. The use of sugarcane aphid-resistant sorghum germplasm with integrated pest management strategies appears to be an excellent solution to this problem. In this study,

Visual ecology of aphids – a critical review on the role of colours in host finding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We review the rich literature on behavioural responses of aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) to stimuli of different colours. Only in one species there are adequate physiological data on spectral sensitivity to explain behaviour crisply in mechanistic terms.

Meta-Analysis of Transcriptomes in Insects Showing Density-Dependent Polyphenism

open access: yesInsects, 2022
With increasing public data, a statistical analysis approach called meta-analysis, which combines transcriptome results obtained from multiple studies, has succeeded in providing novel insights into targeted biological processes.

The grapevine aphid Aphis illinoisensis : a good example of recent invasion and rapid colonization by aphids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Aphis illinoisensis represents one of the most recent aphid invaders from the New World to the Mediterranean Region. This aphid, which is native to North America and is now widely distributed in Central and South America, was first found in Southern ...

Effects of Aluminum Foil Mulch on Parasitism and Fecundity of Apterous \u3ci\u3eMyzus Persicae\u3c/i\u3e (Homoptera: Aphididae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Chinese cabbage plants grown in flats containing either aluminum foil mulch or no mulch cover were uniformly infested with a single apterous adult Myzus persicae (Sulzer) and exposed in a greenhouse to a free-flying population of the parasite Aphidius ...

Transcriptional and Chemical Changes in Soybean Leaves in Response to Long-Term Aphid Colonization

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Soybean aphids (Aphis glycines Matsumura) are specialized insects that feed on soybean (Glycine max) phloem sap. Transcriptome analyses have shown that resistant soybean plants mount a fast response that limits aphid feeding and population growth ...

Aphid Pheromones

open access: yes, 2010
Aphids are the main insect pests of agricultural crops in temperate regions causing major economic losses. Although broad-spectrum insecticides are available for control, alternative and more targeted methods are needed due to insecticide resistance and increasing environmental pressures.
