Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Resistance to bluegreen aphid was found in outcrossing clover populations including white, rose, crimson and red clover.
- Observation Resistance to bluegreen aphid was not found in T. s. brachycalycinum.
- Observation Resistance to bluegreen aphid was not found in T. s. yanninicum.
- Intervention effect In the greenhouse, BGA caused forage yield penalties of 13-74% with aphids inoculated 42 days after sowing.
- Observation Severe BGA damage occurred in two regenerating field trials in southern New South Wales.
- Recommendation Breeding for BGA resistance in clovers is warranted and feasible.
