Assessment of the effects of novel insecticides on green peach aphid (<scp><i>Myzus persicae</i></scp>) feeding and transmission of Turnip mosaic virus (<scp>TuMV</scp>)

Abstract

All test materials were efficacious to GPA at differing levels, and some such as sulfoxaflor and acetamiprid non-significantly reduced the duration and number of pathways and potential drop phases of feeding within the first 5 min. None, however, resulted in significant reductions in rates of transmission of TuMV. © 2020 Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada. Pest Management Science © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.
