ASSOCIATIONAL SUSCEPTIBILITY OF CROP PLANTS CAUSED BY THE INVASIVE WEED CANADIAN GOLDENROD, SOLIDAGO CANADENSIS, VIA LOCAL APHID SPECIES

Associational susceptibility of crop plants caused by the invasive weed Canadian goldenrod, Solidago canadensis, via local aphid species

In the present study, field surveys were conducted to detect potential associational susceptibility of crop plants (potato, alfalfa and maize) caused by Canadian goldenrod, Solidago canadensis (L.), one of the most common invasive weeds in Central and Eastern Europe, via plant associated virus vectoring aphids.Assessments were made in two major agr
