APHID PLANT INTERACTIONS UNDER HIGHER TEMPERATURES: SHIFTS

Temperature rise is expected to impact the interactions between phytophagous species and host plant systems, particularly aphids.As poikilothermic organisms, aphids' development is influenced by temperature, leading to increased development, reproduction, and survival.As a model organism for studying climate change effects, aphids can be affected by oxidative stress, which can impair mitochondrial function.Plants can manufacture reactive oxygen species (ROS) as a defense against phytophagous organisms.Enzymatic systems regulate ROS production and removal, with antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase and catalase protecting aerobic organisms against OS.Enzymes like glutathione S-transferase and -glucosidase are crucial for defense in plants.
