Resistance inducing agents on the biology and probing behaviour of the greenbug in wheat

Abstract: The greenbug Schizaphis graminum (Rond.) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is one of the main pestinsects of wheat (Triticum aestivum, L.). Resistance inducing agents as silicon (Si) and acibenzolar-s-methyl (ASM) can provide some protection against insects and diseases. The effect of Si and/or ASM on the development and probing behaviour of S. graminum in wheat plants was evaluated. Wheat plants (cultivar Embrapa 22) were treated with Si (silicic acid at the rate of 1%) and acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM) at the rate of 0.5%… Show more

“…Treatments consisted of four concentrations (0, 0.28, 0.55, and 0.83 g pot -1 ) of silicon in the form of 1% silicic acid solution (SiO 2 .XH 2 O) (Pereira, Moraes, Prado, & Dacosta, 2010). This solution was applied around the stems of the plants (drenched), with the first application being administered 15 days after transplanting.…”

“…Insect phloem feeding can be inhibited at three stages: before food ingestion, during ingestion (via the activity of salivary enzymes), or after digestion and food absorption. Electrical penetration graphs (EPGs) allowed monitoring of the behavioural responses of insects during probing and feeding and exploration of interference with probing by chemical or physical factors within the plant tissues and of the localization of resistance within plant tissues [ 56 ].…”

“…(Antunes et al, 2010). Application of silicon and acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM) in wheat plants reduced the number of nymphs, extending the duration of the pre-reproductive period and the number of honeydew drops of the green aphid Schizaphis graminum (Rondani, 1958) (Pereira et al, 2010). Considering the high expenses of controlling S. frugiperda, the use of elicitors capable of promoting the induction of resistance is a promising alternative, since induction of resistance allows to reduce the pest population density below the economic damage level, with minimum impact on the environment, being compatible with other control methods.…”
