Multiple Aphid Resistance in CUF-101 Alfalfa1

Abstract
A new experimental alfalfa, CUF-101, has been successfully developed that is resistant to 3 species of aphids, Acyrthosiphon kondoi Shinji, the pea aphid, A. pisum (Harris), and the spotted alfalfa aphid. Therioaphis maculate (Buckton). In greenhouse tests, 70.3, 71.0, and 87.3% of CUF-101 seedlings survived infestation to 3 aphid species, respectively, compared with 70.3, 85.6, and 93.3% of the resistant checks.
