| within plant distribution of potato virus y in hairy nightshade (solanum sarrachoides): an inoculum source affecting pvy aphid transmission. | potato virus y (pvy) is vectored by several potato-colonizing and non-colonizing aphid species in a non-persistent manner and has a wide host range. it occurs naturally in several plant families. myzus persicae and macrosiphum euphorbiae are the most efficient potato-colonizing aphid vectors of pvy. rhopalosiphum padi, a cereal aphid that migrates in large numbers through potato fields during the middle of the growing season, does not colonize potato plants but can transmit pvy. hairy nightshade ... | 2011 | 21601597 |
| Assessing aphids potato virus Y-transmission efficiency: A new approach. | In order to develop an alternative method to optimize the relative efficiency factor (REF) assessment, the efficiency of transmission of Potato virus Y (PVY) by seven aphid species was examined. In vitro micropropagated potato plantlets were used to experiment on phenotypically and genetically homogeneous material. Species-specific acquisition access period (AAP) on a PVY-infected plantlet was assessed for each aphid species using electrical penetration graph (EPG) technique. Aphid probing behav ... | 2011 | 21884729 |
| aphid feeding behavior in relation to potato virus y (pvy) acquisition. | potato virus y (pvy) is transmitted by aphids in a nonpersistent manner and aphid species differ in their ability to transmit pvy. during host selection, aphids will land and probe on nonhost plant species and this behavior is an important component of the epidemiology of many aphid-transmitted viruses. in this study, we hypothesized that host selection behavior varies between aphid species and the host or nonhost status of the plant and this behavior will modulate their ability to acquire pvy. ... | 2012 | 23356052 |
| effect of insecticide-treated potato plants on aphid behavior and potato virus y acquisition. | the objective was to assess the effect of two contact insecticides, lambda-cyhalothrin and flonicamid, and three systemic insecticides, pymetrozine, dimethoate and imidacloprid, on the behavior and potato virus y (pvy) acquisition of three aphid species, macrosiphum euphorbiae (thomas), rhopalosiphum padi l. and aphis fabae (scopoli). | 2015 | 25159012 |
| virus strains differentially induce plant susceptibility to aphid vectors and chewing herbivores. | plants are frequently attacked by both pathogens and insects, and an attack from one can induce plant responses that affect resistance to the other. however, we currently lack a predictive framework for understanding how pathogens, their vectors, and other herbivores interact. to address this gap, we have investigated the effects of a viral infection in the host plant on both its aphid vector and non-vector herbivores. we tested whether the infection by three different strains of potato virus y ... | 2014 | 24178835 |
| impact of aphid alarm pheromone release on virus transmission efficiency: when pest control strategy could induce higher virus dispersion. | aphids cause serious damages to crops not only by tacking sap but also by transmitting numerous viruses. to develop biological control, the aphid alarm pheromone, namely e-β-farnesene (eβf), has been demonstrated to be efficient to repel aphids and as attract beneficials, making it a potential tool to control aphid pests. considering aphids also as virus vectors, changes of their behavior could also interfere with the virus acquisition and transmission process. here, a combination of two aphid s ... | 2016 | 27185564 |
| lettuce mosaic virus: from pathogen diversity to host interactors. | taxonomy: lettuce mosaic virus (lmv) belongs to the genus potyvirus (type species potato virus y) in the family potyviridae. physical properties: the virion is filamentous, flexuous with a length of 750 nm and a width of 15 nm. the particles are made of a genomic rna of 10 080 nucleotides, covalently linked to a viral-encoded protein (the vpg) at the 5' end and with a 3' poly a tail, and encapsidated in a single type of capsid protein. the molecular weight of the capsid protein subunit has been ... | 2008 | 18705846 |
| effect of mixed viral infections (potato virus y-potato leafroll virus) on biology and preference of vectors myzus persicae and macrosiphum euphorbiae (hemiptera: aphididae). | mixed viral infections of heterologous viruses such as potato virus y (family potyviridae, genus potyvirus, pvy) and potato leafroll virus (family luteoviridae, genus polerovirus, plrv) are a regular occurrence in idaho's potato, solanum tuberosum (l.), cropping systems. an increased number of plant samples from idaho's potato fields over the past 2 yr has serologically tested positive for both pvy and plrv via double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (das-elisa) and exhibited ... | 2007 | 17598521 |
| cytochrome c oxidase mrna as an internal control for detection of potato virus y and potato leafroll virus from single aphids by a co-amplification rt-pcr assay. | using cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) mrna as the internal control, a triplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rt-pcr) for detection of potato virus y (pvy) and potato leafroll virus (plrv) with co-amplification of cox1 from single specimens of various aphid species has been developed. partial length cdna of cox1 from green peach aphid, myzus persicae (sulzer), potato aphid, macrosiphum euphorbiae (thomas), buckthorn aphid, aphis nasturtii (kaltenbach), and pea aphid, acyrt ... | 2006 | 17010449 |
