| description |
Following the publication in 1998 of Thrips as Crop Pests, edited by Trevor Lewis, CABI
commissioned Aphids as Crop Pests as a second in the series. However, in prefacing this
book, we wish to pay tribute to another predecessor, Aphids: Their Biology, Natural Enemies
and Control, edited by Albert Minks and Paul Harrewijn and published in three volumes
by Elsevier between 1987 and 1989. This comprehensive and impressive work has
been the standard reference text for aphidologists for nearly 20 years, and we would not
presume to make it redundant with the publication of Aphids as Crop Pests. Therefore, in
planning the content of our book, we have concentrated on the applied aspects of
aphidology and have not sought to match the comprehensive coverage of morphology,
physiology and ecology found in Aphids: Their Biology, Natural Enemies and Control. As
far as aphid biology is concerned, we have instead emphasized areas such as current taxonomic
issues (Chapter 1), host selection and feeding (Chapter 4), nutrition and symbionts
(Chapter 5, which includes full instructions for successful long-term rearing of Myzus
persicae on synthetic diet), chemical ecology (Chapter 9) and reactions to stress (Chapter
11) where there have been major advances in the last fifteen years. We would especially
direct the reader to Chapter 2 on Population Genetics; molecular markers were hardly
available when Minks and Harrewijn’s book was being put together. We have therefore
given a large page allocation to this topic. In similar vein, molecular methods have enabled
many substantial recent advances in our understanding of the mechanisms of aphid resistance
to insecticides (Chapter 10). We also felt that life cycles and polymorphism (Chapter
3), Growth and Development (Chapter 6) and aphid movement (Chapter 7) were areas
particularly relevant to aphids as pests. |
