Abstract

SUMMARYThe numbers of cereal aphids on the soil surface was assessed by soil samples and by counting the numbers captured in pitfall traps. A relationship was found by both methods between the density of aphids on the plants and the numbers of aphids on the soil. This relationship indicated that a higher proportion of the aphid population was on the soil surface at the lower densities on the plant. Reasons for this relationship are suggested and discussed.
