Abstract

The genetic structure of the Krasnodar population of the greenbug (Schizaphis graminum Ron� dani) was analyzed in 2002 to 2010. A high level of general and seasonal polymorphism for the insect virulence to different sorghum accessions was revealed. Abiotic factors were shown to play an important role in the sea� sonal variation of the frequencies of virulence phenotypes: they can alter the relative competitiveness of greenbug clones, and, therefore, changes in environmental conditions lead to differential selection in the S. graminum population
