“Aphis gossypii showing a stronger optomotor response to widely spaced groundnut is consistent with the general aphid landing-rate-vs-vegetation-cover literature underpinning intercropping pest-suppression theory.”
- entomologist · plausible
“Aphis gossypii is a polyphagous aphid known to be attracted to high-contrast bare-soil/plant visual targets, and differential trap catches by spacing are well-documented in the aphid-vector spacing trials.”
