In nature, plants have evolved sophisticated defense mechanisms against the attack of pathogens and insect herbivores. Plant volatile-mediated plant-to-plant communication has been assessed in multitrophic systems in different plant species and different

Effects of mti-2 Transgenic Potato Plants on the Aphid Myzus persicae (Sternorrhyncha: Aphididae)
Overexpressed in transgenic plants, protease inhibitors showed insecticidal effects against several insect taxa. We transformed potato internodes with the mustard trypsin inhibitor mti-2 gene. Among the 35 independent transgenic potato lines obtained via

Gene amplification and microsatellite polymorphism underlie a recent insect host shift [PDF]
Host plant shifts of herbivorous insects may be a first step toward sympatric speciation and can create new pests of agriculturally important crops; however, the molecular mechanisms that mediate this process are poorly understood.

Reduced phloem uptake of Myzus persicae on an aphid resistant pepper accession
The green peach aphid (GPA), Myzus persicae, is economically one of the most threatening pests in pepper cultivation, which not only causes direct damage but also transmits many viruses.

Water stress, root herbivory and above-ground multitrophic interactions in a crucifer-aphid system
Plants, insect herbivores and their natural enemies interact in multitrophic food webs that can be influenced by various stress factors. The aim of the present study was to understand the effects of two different below-ground stress factors (drought and ...

The effect of artificial diet on the production of alarm pheromone by Myzus persicae [PDF]
The cornicle secretion of Myzus persicae reared on artificial diet only elicits an alarm response in plant-reared conspecifics after the young aphids have been transferred to plants for 7days. Acetate in the form of 0.32% sodium acetate has been added to

Aphid-transmitted plant viruses are a threat for major crops causing massive economic loss worldwide. Members in the Luteoviridae family are transmitted by aphids in a circulative and non-replicative mode.

Целта на проучването беше да се анализира поведението на Myzus persicae Sulzer спрямо два типа тютюни – ориенталски (екотип Дупница - сорт Дупница 733) и Виржиния (Л 0842) при производството на разсад. Появата на листните въшки беше почти идентична през

Migration and the Spatial Dynamics of an Aphid, Myzus persicae
During migration the spatial distribution of aphids must become diffuse because migration is dependent on the wind. Mortality during host finding is of the order of hundreds, possibly thousands to one and the subsequent capacity for reproduction, once a migrant is established, is correspondingly great, so that the numbers and distribution of aphids are
