Callose Deposition Regulates Differences in Cotton Aphid Resistance among Six Watermelon Varietie

We assessed the resistance of six watermelon varieties based on the performance of cotton aphids and elucidated the underlying phloem-based defensive mechanisms behind the resistance/susceptibility of watermelon plants against cotton aphids.本研究基于棉蚜（cotton aphids）的取食表现，评估了6个西瓜品种的抗蚜性，并阐明了西瓜植株对棉蚜产生抗/感虫性背后的潜在韧皮部（phloem）依赖性防御机制。
