摘　　要：Life tables of brown and green color morphs of the English grain aphid, Sitobion avenae （Fabricius） reared on barley under laboratory conditions at 20 ＋ 1℃,65% ± 5% relative humidity and a photoperiod of 16 ： 8 h （L ： D） were compared. The plants were either： （i） infected with the Barley yellow dwarf virus （BYDV）; （ii） not infectedwith virus but previously infested with aphids; or （iii） healthy barley plants, which were not previously infested with aphids. Generally, both color morphs of S. avenae performedsignificantly better when fed on BYDV-infected plants than on plants that were virus free but had either not been or had been previously infested with aphids. Furthermore,when fed on BYDV-infected plants, green S. avenae developed significantly faster and had a significantly shorter reproductive period than the brown color morph. There wereno significant differences in this respect between the two color morphs ofS. avenae when they were reared on virus-free plants that either had been or not been previously infestedwith aphids. These results indicate that barley infected with BYDV is a more favorable host plant than uninfected barley for both the color morphs ofS. avenae tested, particularly the green color morph.Life tables of brown and green color morphs of the English grain aphid, Sitobion avenae （Fabricius） reared on barley under laboratory conditions at 20 ＋ 1℃,65% ± 5% relative humidity and a photoperiod of 16 ： 8 h （L ： D） were compared.
