Dissimilar molecular defense responses are elicited in Triticum aestivum after infestation by different Diuraphis noxia biotypes.

Abstract excerpt

For sustainable solutions to the problem of insect infestation, the study of molecular plant-insect interactions is integral to resistance breeding strategies. This also holds true in the case of wheat (Triticum aestivum), where the Russian wheat aphid (Diuraphis noxia, Kurdjumov, RWA) is responsible for significant crop losses in most major wheat producing countries around the world. Our study is focused on...
