Application of flavonoid compounds suppresses the cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii
These results demonstrate that the seven flavonoids, especially naringenin, apigenin, and kaempferol tested provided effective management of <i>A. gossypii</i> populations by deterring host settling, reducing phloem feeding, honeydew production, and decreasing reproductive rates. This study highlights the potential of flavonoids as eco-friendly control agents against <i>A. gossypii</i>.
