A functional genomics approach to dissect spotted alfalfa aphid resistance in Medicago truncatula

Abstract Aphids are virus-spreading insect pests affecting crops worldwide and their fast population build-up and insecticide resistance make them problematic to control. Here, we aim to understand the molecular basis of spotted alfalfa aphid (SAA) or Therioaphis trifolii f. maculata resistance in M...
