Life cycle of aphids

  • Aphids inflict serious damage to a variety of crops. They are notorious virus vectors and have an enormous reproductive capacity.
    There are lots of different coloured species and they occur in all kinds of crops. The nymphs and adults extract food materials from the plant and disturb the balance of the plant’s growth hormones.
    It can result in deformed leaves or even the death of young plants. Aphids secrete honeydew which is a nutrient source for sooty moulds. Their saliva can also induce strong allergic reactions such as malformations of the growing tips. The aphid in this video is the most important vector of viruses and is thus feared by many growers. When reproduction is asexual, the young aphids are born as developed nymphs. They immediately start to feed on plant sap and grow rapidly. Aphids moult four times before reaching adulthood.
    With each moult they shed white skin, betraying their presence in the crop. Adult aphids can have different appearances. They can vary in colour and can be winged or wingless. The most effective method to control aphids depends on species, crop and climate.

      They're also livestock for ants which drink their honeydew
      so that's something to be aware of- essentially ants can feed on their excreta
      And movements of herds can feed the ladybeetles

      They gather near new growth around the edges of branches and especially the tops of plants. They tend to gather on the underside of leaves clustered around the 'center stem' of the leaf. Ants are also commonly found tending to them.

      Here is a wonderful tip, it worked for me: get a sprayer and coconut soap, use 1 spoon of soap for each of liter of water, and then spray it all over these insects, and you are done, you will see, they will all die! It's easy and you will gonna get rid of them once for all.

      guigovr= It turns out that the aphids were the least of my concerns.. loopers and cabbage moth completely destroyed my mature crop in a mater of days even though everyday I picked them off eh leaves.. but they were so aggressive over night they would destroy the plants.. pissed me right off.. there are so many bugs and predators its impossible to grow anything.. everything my friend and i grow ends up as bug food as soons as we can grow it.. suburban growing isn't what it used to be.. tomatoes are still fine, spinach and strawberries seem to be resilient.. every thing else gets eaten before it even gets a chance to grow..

    The life cycle of aphids is much more complex then this.
