State Street, West Lafayette, Indiana 47907-2089, USA, ‡USDA-ARS, Invasive Insect Biocontrol and Behavior Laboratory, BARC-West, Beltsville, Maryland 20705, USA Abstract The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is a pest of soybeans in Asia, and in recent years has caused extensive damage to soybeans in North America. Within these agroecosystems, generalist predators form an important component of the assemblage of natural enemies, and can exert significant pressure on prey populations. These food webs are complex and molecular gut-content analyses offer nondisruptive approaches for exam- ining trophic linkages in the field. We describe the development of a molecular detection system to examine the feeding behaviour of Orius insidiosus (Hemiptera: Anthocoridae) upon soybean aphids, an alternative prey item, Neohydatothrips variabilis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), and an intraguild prey species, Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae). Specific primer pairs were designed to target prey and were used to examine key trophic connections within this soybean food web. In total, 32% of O. insidiosus were found to have preyed upon A. glycines, but disproportionately high consumption occurred early in the season, when aphid densities were low.

  • Recommended IPM Approach and Treatment Threshold for Soybean Aphid Control in Soybean
    AUGUST 2018 Recommended IPM Approach and Treatment Threshold for Soybean Aphid Control in Soybean Soybean aphids (Aphis glycines) are major pests of soybeans (Glycines max) in Minnesota. Soybean aphids injure soybean plants by piercing the plants with tiny needle-like mouth parts and sucking out sap, which can reduce soybean yield. Due to their small size, aphids must occur in high numbers on soybean plants to result in yield loss. Such damaging populations occur yearly in Minnesota (but not necessarily the same regions every year), resulting in the need for an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach to successfully control this pest. Scouting Not all soybean fields are likely to have soybean aphid problems. Early aphid infestations in spring are often found in smaller fields near buckthorn, their primary overwintering plant, and migrate to soybean (See soybean aphid life-cycle in MN below). These infestations are often more abundant on tender and young leaves. Active scouting should be carried out from Mid-June through growth stage R6.5 (pods and leaves begin to yellow). As soybean progresses through reproductive growth stages, aphid populations move to leaves, stems and pods lower on the plants. The presence of lady beetles or ants are often indicative of soybean aphid populations. Sample 20-30 plants from throughout the entire field. Consider sampling at least 1x / week during active scouting period. Count both adults and nymphs (see picture on page 4). An alternative method to scouting is “speed scouting” or sequential sampling method. Speed scouting can be used to save time, however, this method provides less information and can slightly over-recommend treatment of fields.

  • Aphid Vectors Impose a Major Bottleneck on Soybean Dwarf Virus Populations for Horizontal Transmission in Soybean Bin Tian1,2* , Frederick E
    Tian et al. Phytopathology Research (2019) 1:29 https://doi.org/10.1186/s42483-019-0037-3 Phytopathology Research RESEARCH Open Access Aphid vectors impose a major bottleneck on Soybean dwarf virus populations for horizontal transmission in soybean Bin Tian1,2* , Frederick E. Gildow1, Andrew L. Stone3, Diana J. Sherman3, Vernon D. Damsteegt3,4 and William L. Schneider3,4* Abstract Many RNA viruses have genetically diverse populations in a single host. Important biological characteristics may be related to the levels of diversity, including adaptability, host specificity, and host range. Shifting the virus between hosts might result in a change in the levels of diversity associated with the new host. The level of genetic diversity for these viruses is related to host, vector and virus interactions, and understanding these interactions may facilitate the prediction and prevention of emerging viral diseases. It is known that luteoviruses have a very specific interaction with aphid vectors. Previous studies suggested that there may be a tradeoff effect between the viral adaptation and aphid transmission when Soybean dwarf virus (SbDV) was transmitted into new plant hosts by aphid vectors. In this study, virus titers in different aphid vectors and the levels of population diversity of SbDV in different plant hosts were examined during multiple sequential aphid transmission assays. The diversity of SbDV populations revealed biases for particular types of substitutions and for regions of the genome that may incur mutations among different hosts. Our results suggest that the selection on SbDV in soybean was probably leading to reduced efficiency of virus recognition in the aphid which would inhibit movement of SbDV through vector tissues known to regulate the specificity relationship between aphid and virus in many systems.

  • Soybean Aphid Host Range and Virus Transmission Efficiency
    SOYBEAN APHID HOST RANGE AND VIRUS TRANSMISSION EFFICIENCY R. J. Alleman1, C. R. Grau2, and D. B. Hogg1 Introduction The soybean aphid (Aphis glycines Matsumura) was discovered infesting soybean fields in southern Wisconsin in July of 2000. This was the first time aphids had been found colonizing soybeans in Wisconsin. A host range study was performed on this aphid the following winter to determine whether or not the aphid was utilizing plants other than soybean for reproductive purposes. Virus transmission experiments were also conducted with the soybean aphid. Materials and Methods Detached leaves of a number of commonly found legumes were placed in Petri dishes that contained water agar and a small amount of soluble fertilizer. Red clover, berseem clover, crimson clover, kura clover, white sweet clover, yellow sweet clover, and white clover were all tested in this study. Classic alfalfa variety Vernal and Pioneer varieties 5454 and 53v63, which is glandular haired, were also examined. Five varieties of snap bean were also tested in this study. Single aphids that had reached adulthood within 24 h of the start of the experiment were placed on each leaf or leaflet in the study. These aphids were allowed to reproduce for one day. If five or more nymphs had been produced, the adult was removed. If five nymphs had not been produced, the adult was left for another 24 h. At the end of this time the adult and any excess nymphs were removed from the dishes. The length of time that it took each nymph to mature was recorded. The number of aphids that reached maturity and the number of these aphids that were winged or wingless was also recorded.

    E-1232 (Revised) SOYBEAN INSECTS Soybean Aphid, Aphis glycines, Management in North Dakota Figure 2. Soybean aphid adults and Phillip Glogoza, NDSU Extension Entomologist nymphs. Soybean aphid, Aphis glycines, was found in the eastern counties of North Dakota in August 2001, one year after the original discovery in Wisconsin. Since then, soybean aphid has been found on soybean plants in North Dakota as far west as the Missouri River, though their overwintering survival may be limited to areas in the more eastern counties of the state. Though no economic infestations were found during the 2001 season, fields that had significant infestations warranting treatment to limit yield losses were treated in 2002 and 2003. Further, each of those seasons had different infestation patterns, illustrating the unpredictability of this insect pest from season to season. Figure 3. Close-up of soybean aphids. Field scouting to monitor for aphids is strongly recommended. Failure to do so could result in significant yield losses. Description Soybean aphids are small (approximately 1/16 inch long) soft-bodied insects and may be winged or wingless (Figures 2 and 3). Nymphs can be much smaller than adults. The soybean aphid is light yellow with black cornicles (“tail-pipes”) and a pale colored cauda (tail projection). Winged adults will have a black head and thorax. Nymphs that will be winged as adults develop visible wing pads on their thorax (Figure 5). In mid August the aphids are often lighter in color. Figure 4. Winged soybean aphid adult. Life Cycle (Figure 6) The soybean aphid can survive winter only in the egg stage, as is true of other aphids in temperate zones.

Bledsoe, Extension Entomologists In 2000, a new insect, the soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura, was discovered in soybean fields in many areas of the Midwest, including Indiana. Researchers do not know how, when, or where this exotic species entered the US, but since its discovery it has caused significant damage to Indiana soybean fields in 2001 and 2003. This publication summarizes what we know about soybean aphid biology and provides recommendations for scouting and making treatment decisions. The soybean aphid (Fig. 1) is a small yellow aphid with distinct black cornicles, often known as “tailpipes” (Fig. 2). Without careful inspection (10X magnification), they can be confused with other small arthropods living on soybean, including spider mites, thrips, and leafhoppers Fig. 2. Soybean aphid cornicles (Photo Credit: (Figs. 3a, b, c).

  • Emerging Disease, Insect, and Weed Pests in South Dakota Soybean Production
    SoybeaniGrow BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES Chapter 27: Emerging Disease, Insect, and Weed Pests in South Dakota Soybean Production Darrell Deneke Kelley Tilmon Connie L. Strunk ([email protected]) New pests are always around the corner. As with other crop species introduced from other parts of the world, the pests of these plants frequently follow the plant. Once here, these pests often thrive because they do not have their natural predators. A recent example of a pest following the soybean plant is the Asian soybean aphid. The soybean aphid was first documented in North America in July of 2000. From then, its population rapidly grew and it’s now part of the South Dakota soybean grower’s annual insect pest management. This chapter discusses emerging soybean disease, insect, and weed pests that may be of concern for South Dakota soybean growers. The emerging pests covered include frogeye leaf spot, sudden death syndrome, Asian soybean rust, brown marmorated stink bug, kudzu bug, and herbicide-resistant Palmer amaranth (pigweed). Frogeye Leaf Spot Frogeye leaf spot is a common foliar disease of the southern soybean-growing states. Typically, the disease can occur sporadically in the central states, but can be seen farther north when weather conditions are favorable. Frogeye leaf spot favors warm, humid weather for development. Spores are spread short distances by wind or splashing rain. Dry weather severely limits disease development. The disease period in South Dakota is July through August. Occurrence is considered rare and is mainly seen in the southeastern parts of state. Figure 27.1. Soybean leaf showing frogeye leaf spot lesions.
