Activity of Enantiomers of Sulcatol on Apterae of Rhopalosiphum padi
GC-MS analysis of volatiles released from wheat infested with a high density of aphids showed the presence of 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol (sulcatol). The proportion of enantiomers present in the volatiles was determined by esterifying the mixture with (1S)-( − )-camphanic chloride and quantifying the esters. The mixture consisted of 75% (R)-( − ) and 25% (S)

Using electrical penetration graphs to monitor aphid feeding, it was shown that volatiles of a non-host plant (alfalfa, Medicago sativa L.) did not disrupt the process of host acceptance by alate virginoparae of the birdcherry-oat aphid, Rhopalosiphum ...

Triticum monococcum lines with distinct metabolic phenotypes and phloem-based partial resistance to the bird cherry-oat aphid Rhopalosiphum padi [PDF]
Crop protection is an integral part of establishing food security, by protecting the yield potential of crops. Cereal aphids cause yield losses by direct damage and transmission of viruses.

DIMBOA levels in hexaploid Brazilian wheat are not associated with antibiosis against the cereal aphids Rhopalosiphum padi and Sitobion avenae [PDF]
The objective of this study was to evaluate the natural levels of the plant defence compound DIMBOA in young leaves of eight hexaploid Brazilian wheat genotypes and the impact of the genotypes upon development of cereal aphids, Rhopalosiphum padi and ...

Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus Influences Its Vector’s Endosymbionts but Not Its Thermotolerance
The barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) of cereals is thought to substantially increase the high-temperature tolerance of its aphid vector, Rhopalosiphum padi, which may enhance its transmission efficiency.

Sequence Requirements for Translation Initiation of Rhopalosiphum padi Virus ORF2
Rhopalosiphum padi virus (RhPV) is an aphid-infecting virus with a 10-kb ssRNA genome that contains two large open reading frames (ORFs). ORF1 and ORF2 encode the nonstructural and structural polyproteins, respectively. Both ORFs are preceded by noncoding regions of 500 nt that could function as internal ribosome entry segments (IRESes).

Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

Strong biases in the transmission of sex chromosomes in the aphid Rhopalosiphum padi
The typical life cycle of aphids involves several parthenogenetic generations followed by a single sexual one in autumn, i.e. cyclical parthenogenesis. Sexual females are genetically identical to their parthenogenetic mothers and carry two sex chromosomes (XX).

Pollinator‐targeted annual flower strips increase abundances of pollinators but also natural enemies and herbivores. Natural enemies and herbivores disperse in a taxon‐specific manner into nearby crops. Pest control by ground‐dwellers slightly increases in crop areas near the flower strips.

Sitobion avenae (F.) and Rhopalosiphum padi (L.) are two important pests of wheat in China. They typically coexist in fields during the late period of wheat growth. Sulfoxaflor is a novel sulfoximine insecticide that demonstrates broad-spectrum efficacy,
