Do stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses share the same binding sites?

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Here, we tested if different stylet‐borne aphid‐transmitted viruses can compete for the same binding sites within the aphid stylets. We conducted sequential transmission assays of a potyvirus (ZYMV) followed by a cucumovirus (CMV) using Aphis gossypii as a vector and melon and pepper as test plants.

Biotic and abiotic modulation of drought effects on aphids and plants

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Drought affects aphids, plants and their relationships (solid arrows). This study provides a quantitative synthesis of how biotic and abiotic factors modulate the effect of drought on aphids and plants at molecular to community scales (dashed arrows). Out of 329 pair‐wise relationships (drought‐biotic and drought‐abiotic) retrieved from the literature,
