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.

Common facultative endosymbionts do not influence sensitivity of cereal aphids to pyrethroids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Cereal aphids, including the bird cherry-oat aphid, Rhopalosiphum padi, and the grain aphid, Sitobion avenae, can transmit viruses that significantly reduce crop yields.

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.

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.

The quality of aphids as food for generalist predators: implications for natural control of aphids

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2005
The paper reviews existing data on the food quality of cereal aphids for generalist predators. Data are presented for spiders, harvestmen, carabid and staphylinid beetles, cockroaches, ants and one species of bird.

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.

The effect of heat stress on the survival of the rose grain aphid, Metopolophium dirhodum (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2004
The rose grain aphid, Metopolophium dirhodum (Walker) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is one of the three most important cereal aphid species in Europe. High temperature is detrimental for the survival of this species.

Effect of the cereal aphid infestation on the oxidative damages of protein in the maize (Zea mays L.)

open access: yesActa Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2021
We studied the effect of the cereal aphid (the bird cherry-oat aphid Rhopalosiphum padi L. and grain aphid Sitobion avenae F.) infestations on the oxidative damages of protein in the maize (Zea mays L., cultivar Touran) seedlings.

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 ...
