Although gall‐inducing aphids, namely Pemphigus bursarius (L.) and P. phenax Börner et Blunck, are widely known as serious pests for their secondary hosts (lettuce and carrot, respectively), the physiological mechanism of their gall induction on Populus L. trees still requires a better understanding. In this study, we compared physiological parameters, i.e. H2O2, electrolyte leakage (EL), MDA, APX and GPOD. Changes in physiological parameters were analysed in foliar tissues with galls and in the gall tissues themselves and compared to leaves without galls. Significantly higher H2O2 levels were observed in P. phenax galls when compared to leaves with galls. In turn, the highest EL of cells and MDA content was in P. bursarius galls. Other samples had lower or similar oxidative stress marker levels to leaves without galls. APX and GPOD had similar activity profiles in galls of both aphid species. Their activity decreased significantly in gall tissues, where it was even ten‐fold lower than in leaves without galls. Data generated in this study indicate that patterns of the physiological features, e.g. ROS accumulation and cell membrane integrity, of Populus leaves with galls and galls alone depends on the gall‐inducing aphid species. Where decreased APX and GPOD activity, especially in gall tissues, indicated a reduction in the antioxidant potential of these neoformed structures.

“…So far, other studies have investigated species composition and bionomy of aphids on those plants which a particular study focused on. Where and how many eggs were laid by oviparous females on the plants were only what was noted (Karczewska 1964(Karczewska , 1965(Karczewska , 1969Huculak 1966;Goszczyński and Cichocka 1978;Cichocka 1980Cichocka , 1984Cichocka , 1995Cichocka , 2007Barczak 1986;Cichocka and Goszczyński 1991;Barczak et al 1996;Cichocka and Jaśkiewicz 2003;Goszczyński and Osak 2007;Lubiarz 2007a, b). In some studies, isolated pieces of information can be found regarding the effect of low temperatures on that developmental stage.…”

“…Eriosoma ulmi (Linnaeus 1758), Eriosoma lanuginosum (Hartig 1839), Pemphigus bursarius (Linnaeus 1758), and Pemphigus spyrothecae Passerini 1860 lay eggs in the bark of the trunk and thick branches of an elm (Goszczyński and Cichocka 1978;Cichocka 1984). Males and females from the bisexual generation produced by the same female, are called sexupara (Cichocka 1984). After copulation, an oviparous female lays a single egg.…”

“…It may happen that the female will die without previously laying the egg. Eggs covered by the bodies of the dead females have the best chances of surviving winter, and the highest numbers of fundatrix larvae hatch from them in spring (Janiszewska- -Cichocka 1970;Cichocka 1984). In E. ulmi, fundatrix larvae hatch in spring from only 30% of eggs laid in autumn.…”

No detailed studies have been conducted in Poland with regard to aphid eggs or egg survival in particular. So far, no studies have been conducted concerning the role of ladybird beetles in reducing the number of aphid eggs in spring, before the development of leaves, and in autumn, after the leaves have been shed. At these times, other developmental stages of aphids are unavailable as food for the ladybirds. The paper presents the preliminary results of a three-year study on the process of aphid egg-laying (especially Chaetosiphon tetrarhodum, Macrosiphum rosae, Metopolophium dirhodum, and Maculolachnus submacula). The paper also deals with the little known role of ladybirds in aphid egg destruction. Research was conducted in Otrębusy (Western Mazovia), Poland, in the years 2008-2010, on the rugosa rose and on the dog rose. In the years 2011-2013, in Otrębusy, the occurrence of M. submacula was also observed on the ornamental grandiflora rose. Furthermore, in the years 2003-2004, observations were conducted on the pedunculate oak in Polesie National Park and in the town of Puławy (Lublin Region), Poland. The observations which took place in Puławy focused on egglaying of aphids representing the genera Phylloxera and Lachnus. The study investigated aphid oviposition sites. Data was collected on the number of aphid eggs noted on the studied plants. The study also showed, that sometimes winter eggs of aphids could provide nutrition for ladybirds. This was especially true in autumn when ladybird beetles were preparing for hibernation.

“…At least 15 aphids species are recognized to colonize on chrysanthemum, including Macrosiphoniella sanborni Gillete (Wang et al, 2014;Ali, 2017). The insects attacked the plant by piercing the cells and sucking the sap (Cichocka et al, 2015). The large colonies causing these mechanical injuries might reduce plant vigour and kill the plant (Saicharan et al, 2017).…”

Effects of Several Botanical Insecticides Applied in Different Periods to Control Aphids (Macrosiphoniella sanborni Gillete) on Chrysanthemum

Pest management in the agricultural process has faced worldwide economic and ecological issues related to chemicals usage. Botanical insecticides have long been considered promising alternatives to control pests because botanicals reputedly pose a minor threat to the environment and human health. Some studies have evaluated several botanical insecticides to control aphids in chrysanthemum. The research was conducted under plastic house conditions at the Indonesian Ornamental Crops Research Institute from January to December 2018. Leaf extract of T. sinensis, T. diversifolia and A. indica at the concentration of 3 and 3.5 g/l, processed oil of C. nardus at the concentration of 2.5 and 5 g/l and synthetic insecticide Imidacloprid 1 g/l were sprayed in the morning or late afternoon. The results showed that aphid attacks severity and percentage of attacked plants were lower when the insecticides were applied in the late afternoon. Slightly softer than synthetic chemicals, the leaf extract of T. sinensis at 3 g/l suppressed the aphid development more effective for about 55.93% than other botanicals treatments. On reproductive properties, the leaf extract of T. sinensis at 3 and 3 g/l and T. diversifolia at 3 g/l induced a higher percentage of open flower for more than 65% than synthetic insecticides, Imidacloprid.
