Strawberry resistance to the aphid Chaetosiphon fragaefolii Cockerell (Homoptera: Aphididae)
2014
Cross-sections of leaf blades and petioles of different strawberry genotypes
exhibiting different levels of resistance to Chaetosiphon fragaefolii were
studied using the paraffin method, and staining with safranin, crystal violet
and light green. Besides thicker cell walls of the cortex collenchyma in the
more resistant genotypes, and a proportionally wider collenchyma than
parenchyma in the cortex, their midribs are also encircled by a ring of more
intensely stained lignified cells forming a physical ring. This stain
reaction of cells to safranin and crystal violet occurs also in lateral
vascular bundles, as well as in leaf palisade tissue. The tissue
cross-sections of the sensitive genotypes revealed a predominance of green on
the cellulose cell walls and protoplasts due to the reaction to light green
SF, while stain reactions to safranin and crystal violet were not evidenced.
