About the Book

The great majority of the contributions to be found in this volume result from oral presentations given at a symposium during the XVIII International Congress of Entomology entitled "Mechanisms of Aphid-Plant Genotype Interactions", which was held in Vancouver, Canada in July, 1988. Aphids represent a vast and diverse assemblage of insects. Among these are many of great economic importance by virtue of their detrimental effects to important crop or ornamental plants. Even those aphids having little or no economic impact, or that cause no damage to their hosts except nutrient removal, may yet be of great theoretical interest in that their often intimate association with their hosts provides excellent systems for the study of the evolution of adaptation. Other factors, such as environmental influences, and associations with pathogenic, saprophytic, or symbiotic microorganisms, may play an influential role in modifying the ultimate outcome of aphid-plant interactions. Substantive future progress towards the elucidation of these processes can only be expected if much greater understanding is obtained of the interactions of all the organisms involved in the plant based community.

Table of Contents:
Aphid-Plant genotype interactions-perspective (H.F. van Emden). Ecological interactions of aphids and their host plants (A.F.G. Dixon). Aphid host plant ecology: The bird cherry-oat aphid as a model (S. Wiktelius et al). Experimental studies on some aphid life-cycle patterns and the hybridization of two sibling species (G.X. Zhang, T.S. Zhong). The population biological consequences of a mosaic-like population structure in Macrosiphum rosae (K. Wohrmann, J. Tomiuk). The use of restriction fragment length polymorphisms to study the ecology and evolutionary biology of aphid-plant interactions (K.N. Paige et al). Continuous recording of stylet penetration activities by aphids (W.F. Tjallingii). Aphid stylet movement and host-plant reaction in the case of adelgidae on spruce (O. Rohfritsch). Resistance mechanisms of plant genotypes to various aphid species (P. Harrewijn). Aphid salivary secretions and their involvement in plant toxicoses (P.W. Miles). The role of plant matrix polysaccharides in aphid-plant interactions (B.C. Campbell, D.L. Dreyer). Greenbugs and wheat: A model system for the study of phytotoxic homoptera (J.D. Ryan et al). The role of secondary plant compounds in aphid-host interactions (H.M. Niemeyer). Lipids at the aphid-plant interface (J.W. Dillwith , R.C. Berberet). Aphid induced alteration of the availability and form of nitrogenous compounds in plants (K.W. Dorschner). Pea aphid biotypes in relation to plant genotypes and chemically defined diets (P.N. Srivastava, J.L. Auclair). Specificity in aphid/plant genetic interactions, with particular attention to the role of the alate colonizer (R.L. Blackman). Genetic stability in aphid clones and its implication for host-plant interactions (J. Tomiuk). Sexual reproduction and inheritance of virulence in the greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani) (G.J. Puterka, D.C. Peters). Nutritional interactions between Myzus persicae and its symbionts (A.E. Douglas). Partial characterization of the ribosomal RNA operons of the pea-aphid endosymbionts: Evolutionary and physiological implications (B.M. Unterman, P. Baumann). Molecular interactions of intracellular symbionts and aphids (H. Ishikawa). Index.
