AHDB Aphid News

The first edition of AHDB Aphid News for 2018 has just been released:

  • The switch from weekly to daily suction-trapping commenced on 5 March, before that catches were weekly.
  • The sudden change in weather, including the upturn in air temperature this calendar week, has prompted the beginning of this year’s aphid reporting.
  • No peach–potato aphids (Myzus persicae) or willow-carrot aphids (Cavariella aegopodii) have been caught so far this year.
  • The shallot aphid (Myzus ascalonicus) is the most numerous aphid species in the suction-trap samples to date and has been caught in all of the traps from Kirton south.
