Wild potato ancestors as potential sources of resistance to the aphid Myzus persicae (2022)
Journal Article
Bruce, T. J., Ali, J., & Sobhy, I. S. (2022). Wild potato ancestors as potential sources of resistance to the aphid Myzus persicae. Pest Management Science, 78(9), 3931-3938. https://doi.org/10.1002/ps.6957

BACKGROUND: Plant resistance to insects can be reduced by crop domestication which means their wild ancestors could provide novel sources of resistance. Thus, crossing wild ancestors with domesticated crops can potentially enhance their resistance ag...
