Gerald E. Wilde, Harlan Feese

Abstract

The corn leaf aphid, Rhopalosiphum maidis (Fitch), occurs on numerous plants, including sorghum, corn, and several small grains. Painter and Pathak (1962) described 4 biotypes on the basis of aphid reproduction on different plants and plant reaction to aphid feeding and named them KS-1, KS-2, KS-3, and KS-4.
