class=\"wp-block-heading\">Damage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Potato Aphids are usually found on the lower surface of the leaf, where they form colonies. A characteristic feature is the production of honeydew. In severe infestations the leaves become bumpy and metachromatic. In addition to sap sucking, aphids may carry viruses (e.g. leaf curl virus, A, M and Y), in which case the leaves show the corresponding symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enemy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Aphid adults are 1-4 mm long and their coloration varies depending on the species: green, yellow, reddish, brown or brownish-black. There are both winged and wingless forms. The nymphs resemble the adults in appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Source<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bayercropscience.gr\/index.asp?a_id=210&amp;sel1=sel1a,16,47&amp;sel2=sel2a,1&amp;asth_id=35\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.bayercropscience.gr\/index.asp?a_id=210&amp;sel1=sel1a,16,47&amp;sel2=sel2a,1&amp;asth_id=35<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Myzus_persicae\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Myzus persicae<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Macrosiphum_euphorbiae\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Macrosiphum euphorbiae<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/influentialpoints.com\/Gallery\/Macrosiphum_euphorbiae_Potato_aphid.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Potato Aphid)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Potato aphids attack potatoes and many other crops.

I perceive my self as always a student. I created kalliergo.gr back in 2010, charmed by the plants magical world. I am a Biomedical Engineer, holding a MSc degree on E-Business. For a living I help businesses to grow online. I am not an agronomist but wish I had also a degree on agronomy. I hope that you will find interesting and helpful information on KALLIERGO.","url":"https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/author\/ilias\/"}]}},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/exthros-afides-patatas-01.jpg",1200,799,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/exthros-afides-patatas-01-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/exthros-afides-patatas-01-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/exthros-afides-patatas-01-768x511.jpg",768,511,true],"large":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/exthros-afides-patatas-01-1024x682.jpg",1024,682,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/exthros-afides-patatas-01.jpg",1200,799,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/exthros-afides-patatas-01.jpg",1200,799,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Ilias Antonopoulos","author_link":"https:\/\/www.kalliergo.gr\/en\/author\/ilias\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Potato aphids attack potatoes and many other crops.
