Host Acceptance and Plant Resistance: A Comparative Behavioral Study of <i>Myzus persicae</i> and <i>Acyrthosiphon pisum</i>
Aphids are prominent phloem-feeding insect pests. <i>Myzus persicae</i> and <i>Acyrthosiphon pisum</i> are generalist and specialist species, respectively. In this study, these two aphid species were used to investigate host acceptance and plant resistance to aphid feeding. &...
