This project investigates the interactions between aphids and their host and non-host plants to understand the molecular mechanisms that determine host range. By studying two key aphid species, the project aims to uncover cellular changes in plants and identify aphid effectors that influence these interactions, ultimat…
Many aphid species are restricted to one or few host plants, while some aphids, many of which are of agricultural importance, can infest a wide range of plant species.
An important observation is that aphids spend a considerable time on nonhost species, where they probe the leaf tissue and secrete saliva, but for unknown reasons are unable to ingest phloem sap.
This suggest that aphids, like plant pathogens, interact with nonhost plants at the molecular level, but potentially are not successful…
