TY  - CHAP
AB  - Aphids are the economically most important sapsucking insect pest worldwide, causing yield losses by draining nutrients from the phloem sap and vectoring viruses. While no genetic resistance to aphids exists in the model plant Arabidopsis thalia, Medicago truncatula has genetic resistance to a range of different aphid species. Over the last decade M. truncatula has thus been used as an excellent model plant to study plant aphid interactions. This book chapter provides an overview on the current major resistance genes and quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that have been identified and the underlying molecular defense responses.
