Abstract

Few Myzus persicae settled on polygodial (1 g litre-1) or dodecanoic acid (5 g litre-1)-treated leaves and few nymphs were deposited. Polygodial decreased acquisition of the semi-persistent beet yellows virus and the non-persistent potato virus Y and dodecanoic acid that of the persistent potato leafroll and beet mild yellowing viruses, of beet yellows virus and of the bimodally-transmitted cauliflower mosaic virus. However dodecanoic acid increased the acquisition of potato virus Y.
