“…Our results add to a body of research that also demonstrated enhanced performance of aphids on BYDV-infected conventionally bred host plants. For example, Miller and Coon (1964) reported a longer reproductive period and greater fecundity for S. avenae on plants infected with BYDV compared with healthy ones. Montlor and Gildow (1986) reported an increase in the rate of population growth of Schizaphis graminum (Rondani) (Homoptera: Aphididae) when fed on oats infected with BYDV.…”

The life history of Rhopalosiphum padi (L.) was monitored on transgenic and untransformed (soft white winter wheat plants that were infected with Barley yellow dwarf virus (BLDV), noninfected, or challenged with virus-free aphids under laboratory conditions. Two transgenic soft white winter wheat genotypes (103.1J and 126.02) derived from the parental variety Lambert and expressing the barley yellow dwarf virus coat protein gene, and two untransformed varieties, virus-susceptible Lambert and virus-tolerant Caldwell, were tested. B. padi nymphal development was significantly longer on the transgenic genotypes infected with BYDV, compared with noninfected transgenic plants. In contrast, nymphal development on Lambert was significantly shorter on BYDV-infected than on noninfected plants. Nymphal development on noninfected Lambert was significantly longer than on noninfected transgenics. No significant difference in nymphal development period was detected between virus-infected and noninfected Caldwell. Aphid total fecundity, length of reproductive period, and intrinsic rate of increase were significantly reduced on BYDV-infected transgenic plants compared with BYDV-infected Lambert. In contrast, reproductive period, total adult fecundity, and intrinsic rate of increase on noninfected Lambert were significantly reduced compared with noninfected transgenics. Transgenic plants infected with BYDV were inferior hosts for R. padi compared with infected Lambert. However, noninfected transgenics were superior hosts for aphids than noninfected Lambert. Moderate resistance to BYDV, as indicated by a significantly lower virus titer, was detected in the transgenic genotypes compared with the untransformed ones. Results show for the first time that transgenic virus resistance in wheat can indirectly influence R. padi life history.

“…In view of the dis crepancy in findings concerning the presence or absence of an incubation period in M. persicae discussed elsewhere (53), it would be of interest to study the oxygen consumption u:lder conditions that seem to favor the absence of incubation (35). Barley yellow dwarf virus.-Miller (55) reported that barley yellow dwad virus affected the metabcHsm of the English grain aphid, Macrosiphum granarium (Kirby), by reducing the consumption of oxygen of viruliferous aphids approximately 14 per cent. Other differences that were noted in viruliferous aphids included the shorter period of development from birth to adult stage, longer life, lor..ger reproductive period, and more progeny than nonviruliferous controls.…”

“…Ehrhardt's results might be attributed to the transfer of adult aphids to P.floridana and thence to Chinese cabbage plants. Miller and Coon (1964) reported a reduction of 13.8 ~ in the oxygen consumption of Macrosiphum granarium reared on oat plants infected with barley yellow dwarf virus. Yoshii and Kiso (1957) demonstrated changes in oxygen consumption and a reduction in total amounts of phosphorus in orange trees with dwarf disease virus and in its planthopper vector, Geisha distinctissima.…”

“…Many investigators have reported that several species of insect vectors developed faster, lived longer, and gave more offspring on virus-diseased plants than on healthy hosts (Janssen, 1929;Carter, 1939;Severin, 1946;Kennedy, 1951;Arenz, 1951;Hijner and Cordon, 1953;Maramorosch, 1958;Baker, 1960;Miller and Coon, 1964;Saini and Peterson, 1965). However, the opposite has also been reported (Jensen, 1959(Jensen, , 1960Shinkai, 1960;Okuyama, 1962;Lowe and Strong, 1963;Nasu, 1963).…”

The effect of potato leafroll virus on the biology of Myzus persicae

Since potato leafroll virus multiplies in the green peach aphid, Myzus persicae, the effect of the virus on the biology of its vector was investigated. Observations were made regarding the longevity and the reproduction rate of viruliferous and non-viruliferous aphids on leafroll-diseased and healthy plants of Physalis floridana. The same matters were investigated for both viruliferous and non-viruliferous aphids on seedlings of Chinese cabbage (Brassica pekinensis). It was shown that on leafroll-diseased plants of P. floridana the aphids produced more progeny than on l~ealthy ones, although the average number of progeny produced per day in both cases was almost the same. On healthy Chinese cabbage seedlings there was no difference in average length of the larval and adult stages, number of progeny per aphid, and number of progeny per day, between viruliferous and non-viruliferous aphids. Evidence was obtained that the virus does not influence the development of its vector. Measurements of oxygen consumption of both viruliferous and non-viruliferous aphids point in the same direction.
