A protein from the salivary glands of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, is essential in feeding on a host plant

TL;DR: It is shown, by using RNAi-based transcript knockdown, that this protein is important in the survival of the pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum) on fava bean, a host plant, and this protein, whose sequence contains an N-terminal secretion signal, is injected into the host plant during aphid feeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

RNAi knockdown of a salivary transcript leading to lethality in the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum

TL;DR: Injection of siRNA into parthenogenetic adult pea aphids is shown to lead to depletion of a target salivary gland transcript, which suggests that siCoo2-RNA injections can be a useful positive control in such studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Premature Leaf Senescence Modulated by the Arabidopsis PHYTOALEXIN DEFICIENT4 Gene Is Associated with Defense against the Phloem-Feeding Green Peach Aphid

TL;DR: The results suggest that PAD4 modulates the activation of senescence in the aphid-infested leaves, which contributes to basal resistance to GPA.

Premature Leaf Senescence Modulated by the Arabidopsis PHYTOALEXIN DEFICIENT4 Gene Is Associated with Defense against the Phloem-Feeding

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that green peach aphid (GPA) feeding induced premature chlorosis and cell death, and increased the expression of SENESCENCE ASSOCIATED GENES (SAGs), all hallmarks of leaf senescence.
