Comparing the genetic structure of codling moth Cydia pomonella (L.) from Greece and France: long distance gene-flow in a sedentary pest species
(2012)Codling moth Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is the most important insect pest of apple production in Europe. Despite the economic importance of this pest, there is not information about the genetic structure ... -
Detection and geographical distribution of the organophosphate resistance-associated Delta 3Q ace mutation in the olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae (Rossi)
(2014)BACKGROUND The olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae (Rossi) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is the most important pest of olives. Its control is based mostly on organophosphate (OP) insecticides, a practice that has led to resistance ... -
Efficacy of pymetrozine against Myzus persicae and in reducing potato virus Y transmission on tobacco plants
(2010)Forty-four parthenogenetic lineages of Myzus persicae s.l. (Sulzer) from tobacco crops and peach orchards located in various regions of Greece were examined to determine their response to the insecticide pymetrozine using ... -
Efficacy of the pyrethroid alpha-cypermethrin against Bactrocera oleae populations from Greece, and improved diagnostic for an iAChE mutation
(2008)BACKGROUND: The most important pest of olive orchards worldwide is the olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae (Gmelin). Its control in Greece has been based on organophosphates (OPs), but their intense use has led to the development ... -
Establishing the resistance of Myzus persicae (Sulzer) by molecular methods
(2008)In two years of investigating resistance of the peach-potato aphid Myzus persicae (Sulzer) by molecular methods, several types of resistance were established in the majority of individuals from peach and tobacco in Serbia ... -
Genomic structure, organization and localization of the acetylcholinesterase locus of the olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae
(2013)Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), encoded by the ace gene, is a key enzyme of cholinergic neurotransmission. Insensitive acetylcholinesterase (AChE) has been shown to be responsible for resistance to OPs and CBs in a number of ... -
Host-related morphological variation within Myzus persicae group (Homoptera : Aphididae) from Japan
(2007)There have been independent long-term studies of tobacco-adapted populations of Myzus persicae in Japan and Greece, but until now no direct comparisons have been made between them. In Japan, as in Greece, tobacco aphids ... -
Life cycle variation of Myzus persicae (Hemiptera : Aphididae) in Greece
(2002)During the years 1995-1999 the life cycle category of 2797 clones of Myzus persicae (Sulzer) was examined. The clones originated from primary and secondary hosts from different localities of North and Central Greece and ... -
Recent changes in the distribution of carboxylesterase genes and associated chromosomal rearrangements in Greek populations of the tobacco aphid Myzus persicae nicotianae
(2014)We present data on the frequency of amplified E4 and FE4 carboxylesterase genes in Myzus persicae s.l. clones collected during the years 2002-2007 and 2012 in Greece. Most clones were of the tobacco aphid, Myzus persicae ... -
Transmission of Potato virus Y in tobacco plants by Myzus persicae nicotianae and M-persicae s.str
(2006)The transmission efficiency of Potato virus Y-N (PVYN) from and to tobacco plants by Myzus persicae nicotianae, a tobacco specialist, and M. persicae s.str. (Hemiptera: Aphididae), a generalist, was evaluated. In direct ...
