| Abstract | Phytophagous insects generally feed on a restricted range of host plants, using a number of different sensory and behavioural mechanisms to locate and recognize their host plants. Phloem-feeding aphids have been shown to exhibit genetic variation for host preference of different plant species and genetic variation within a plant species can also have an effect on aphid preference and acceptance. It is known that genotypic interactions between barley genotypes and Sitobion avenae aphid genotypes influence aphid fitness, but it is unknown if these different aphid genotypes exhibit active host choice (preference) for the different barley genotypes. Active host choice by aphid genotypes for particular plant genotypes would lead to assortative association (non-random association) between the different aphid and plant genotypes. The performance of each aphid genotype on the plant genotypes also has the ability to enhance these interactions, especially if the aphid genotypes choose the plant genotype that also infers the greatest fitness. In this study, we demonstrate that different aphid genotypes exhibit differential preference and performance for different barley genotypes. Three out of four aphid genotypes exhibited preference for (or against) particular barley genotypes that were not concordant with differences in their reproductive rate on the specific barley genotype. This suggests active host choice of aphids is the primary mechanism for the observed pattern of non-random associations between aphid and barley genotypes. In a community context, such genetic associations between the aphids and barley can lead to population-level changes within the aphid species. These interactions may also have evolutionary effects on the surrounding interacting community, especially in ecosystems of limited species and genetic diversity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
