Abstract
Host plant ranges of the blue alfalfa aphid (BAA), Acyrthosiphon kondoi Shinji, and the pea aphid (PA), Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris), were investigated on leguminous plant species. Fecundities of BAA and PA were determined on 84 plant species from the genera Astragalus, Coronilla, Lathyrus, Lens, Lotus, Lupinus, Medicago, Melilotus, Ononis, Phaseolus, Pisum, Trifolium, Vicia, and Vigna in greenhouse studies. Both aphids displayed a broad reproductive host range extending to species in all genera tested except Phaseolus. Few well-defined differences were evident between reproductive host ranges of the two aphid species...
