Abstract

A few numbers of commonly found aphid species on food crops such as Aphis gossypii and Myzus persicae are well studied, but little is known for other species. This study aimed to determine the species, host plants, and colony characteristics of aphids associated with food crops in Bogor and Cianjur districts. Aphids were collected from eight main food crops i.e. rice, corn, taro, cassava, soybean, peanut, sweet potato, and wheat. Nine aphid species were identified, namely A. gossypii, A. glycines, A. craccivora, Rhopalosiphum maidis, R. padi, Sitobion avenae, M. persicae, Hyteroneura setariae, and Tetraneura nigriabdominalis. Most of these collected aphid species were in the wingless form. Aphis gossypii was the most abundant aphid species found. The plants belong to Family Poaceae were the most frequently crops infested by aphids. The result of this study indicated that there were some aphid species associated with food crops in Bogor and Cianjur districts which would potentially become serious pests.
