Pea Aphid (<i>Acyrthosiphon pisum</i>) Host Races Reduce Heat-Induced Forisome Dispersion in <i>Vicia faba</i> and <i>Trifolium pratense</i>

Although phloem-feeding insects such as aphids can cause significant damage to plants, relatively little is known about early plant defenses against these insects. As a first line of defense, legumes can stop the phloem mass flow through a conformational change in phloem proteins known as forisomes...
