Characterization of electrical penetration graphs of the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri, in sweet orange seedlings (2010, background): “This behavior is often associated with host plant selection (Wensler & Filshie, 1969; Powell et al., 2006) and is very important for acquisition and inoculation of non-persistently transmitted plant viruses (Lopez-Abella et al., 1988; Powell, 1991; Martin et al., 1997).”
Sites of synthesis, biochemistry and functional role of plant volatiles (2010, background): “Volatiles from primary host plants may also attract other insects, as is the case of male aphids (Powell and Hardie, 2001; Powell et al., 2006).”
Avoiding Effective Defenses: Strategies Employed by Phloem-Feeding Insects1 (2008, background): “Whiteflies and aphids use tactile and gustatory cues to determine the value of a plant as a feeding and oviposition host (Gerling, 1990; Powell et al., 2006).”
The elements of seasonal adaptations in insects (2007, background): “Such a process parallels other chains of behaviour in insects, such as dispersal, then landing, then host selection in aphids (Powell et al. 2006) and components of habitat selection and then host selection in parasitoids (Vinson 1976).”
