    Notes: The Russian wheat aphid (RWA), is a serious threat to wheat production worldwide. The identification of a new RWA biotype in the USA virulent to all commercially grown winter wheats poses new challenges to wheat breeders. Wheat germplasm was evaluated to identify accessions resistant to the new virulent RWA isolate (biotype 2). Eleven biotype 1-resistant wheats and one susceptible check were challenged with RWA biotype 2. Two resistant wheat entries were identified (one highly resistant and one moderately resistant). This information is useful to wheat breeders searching for sources of resistance to the new RWA biotype to incorporate into their breeding programmes.

    Notes: Abstract Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), is the major insect pest of wheat in Morocco. Host plant resistance has been the most effective and practical method of controlling this pest. When 347 accessions of Aegilops species were screened in the greenhouse for resistance to Hessian fly, several accessions of Ae. geniculata Roth, Ae. triuncialis L., Ae. neglecta Req.ex Bertol., Ae. ventricosa Tausch, Ae. cylindrica Host and Ae. markgrafii (Greuter) Hammer showed resistance reaction. All expressed antibiosis as the mechanism of resistance against first instar Hessian fly larvae. These Aegilops sources of resistance could be exploited for transferring Hessian fly resistance to wheat.
