Non-host volatiles do not affect host acceptance by alate virginoparae of Rhopalosiphum padi (Hemiptera: Aphididae) settled on the host plant surface
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 padi L., once it was settled on a host plant (wh...

Summary: | 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 padi L., once it was settled on a host plant (wheat, Triticum aestivum L.). |
