Rapid screening for resistance to <scp><i>Sitobion avenae</i></scp> (F.) and <scp><i>Rhopalosiphum padi</i></scp> (L.) in winter wheat seedlings and selection of efficient assessment methods
Overall, antixenosis and antibiosis varietal responses were consistent for both aphid species. Alate settlement on wheat seedlings was a more efficient antixenosis screen than an olfactometer assay using VOCs. In addition to assessing alate and nymph survival for antibiosis, this allows for more rapid phenotyping of large numbers of genotypes to identify novel aphid resistance genes for varietal improvement. © 2024 The Author(s).
