Resistance in alfalfa to Aphis craccivora Koch
The cowpea aphid, Aphis craccivora Koch (Aphididae), is considered to be one of the major pests in the semiarid Pampas of Argentina and in other alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) growing areas of the world. In the present study the antibiotic, antixenotic, and tolerance resistance of eight alfalfa cultiv...

In the present study the antibiotic, antixenotic, and tolerance resistance of eight alfalfa cultivars to A. craccivora, were investigated under laboratory conditions at 24 ± 1 °C, 65 ± 10% relative humidity, and 14:10 h photoperiod.

This value ranged from 0.04 to 0.16 females female-1 d-1, which was the lowest on ’Medina’. Additionally, the estimated net reproductive rate (Ro) and finite rate of increase (X) for apterous aphids were the lowest on ’Medina’. For the antixenosis experiment significant difference was found in aphid’s preference to the alfalfa cultivars. ’Carmina’ and ’Victoria’ were the least preferred by the apterous aphids.
