Infection of cereal aphids by the fungus Entomophthora

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, 1973
SUMMARYThree species of Entomophthora killed many Metopolophium dirhodum, M. festucae and Sitobion avenae on wheat at Harpenden, Hertfordshire, in 1971. Rainfall was low and aphid numbers were small in May and there was no Entomophthora infection. E. planchoniana first infected M. dirhodum early in June and the percentage of each aphid species infected

Effects of different field managements on the abundance of cereal aphids (Sternorrhyncha: Aphidoidea).

open access: yesPlant Protection Science, 2004
The abundance of cereal aphids on winter wheat tillers and ears was determined in two field managements (integrated and ecological) at Dolná Malanta, Slovakia, over the years 1999-2001.

A note on current pyrethroid susceptibility in the bird cherry-oat aphid Rhopalosiphum padi in Ireland

open access: yesIrish Journal of Agricultural and Food Research, 2022
The objective of this study was to observe the response of the bird cherry oat aphid, Rhopalosiphum padi (Linnaeus, 1758) to field rate equivalents of insecticides, by using bioassays of vials coated with the pyrethroid, λ-cyhalothrin.

Studies on Polyphagous Predators of Cereal Aphids

open access: yesThe Journal of Applied Ecology, 1979
1. Experiments were done in fields of winter wheat at North Farm, West Sussex, and at Rothamsted in 1978 to investigate the effect of predation by carabid beetles and other polyphagous preadtors on populations of cereal aphids. 2. Predator populations were manipulated by pitfall trapping within plot surrounded by polythene barriers and by applying an ...

Genome of Russian wheat aphid an economically important cereal aphid

open access: yesStandards in Genomic Sciences, 2017
AbstractAlthough the hemipterans (Aphididae) are comprised of roughly 50,000 extant insect species, only four have sequenced genomes that are publically available, namely Acyrthosiphon pisum (pea aphid), Rhodnius prolixus (Kissing bug), Myzus persicae

Estimating Economic Thresholds and Economic Injury Levels for Schizaphis graminum (Rond.) and Sitobion avenae Fab. Infesting Wheat Plants in Najaf Government, Iraq [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plant Protection and Pathology
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a vital cereal crop in Iraq and worldwide, but its productivity is threatened by cereal aphids, particularly Schizaphis graminum and Sitobion avenae.

Genetic Resources of Cereal Crops for Aphid Resistance

open access: yesPlants, 2022
The genetic resources of cereal crops in terms of resistance to aphids are reviewed. Phytosanitary destabilization led to a significant increase in the harmfulness of this group of insects. The breeding of resistant plant genotypes is a radical, the cheapest, and environmentally safe way of pest control.

Effect of chlorophenoxy herbicides residues on probing behavior of cereal aphid

open access: yesAgronomy Science, 2018
Chlorophenoxyacetic herbicides such as 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) are used for cereal protection.

Prevalent Pest Management Strategies for Grain Aphids: Opportunities and Challenges

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Cereal plants in natural ecological systems are often either sequentially or simultaneously attacked by different species of aphids, which significantly decreases the quality and quantity of harvested grain.

Detoxification of Gramine by the Cereal Aphid Sitobion avenae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Ecology, 2009
Secondary metabolites play an important role in host plant resistance to insects, and insects, in turn, may develop mechanisms to counter plant resistance mechanisms. In this study, we investigated the toxicity of gramine to the cereal aphid Sitobion avenae and some enzymatic responses of S. avenae to this alkaloid. When S.
