Abstract
The number of Aphis fabae population on ten cultivars of carrot was estimated in 2007–2009 in a field experiment. In the insulator (2008–2009) and in a pot experiments (2009) the influence of A. fabae feeding on yielding of carrot was studied. Changes in the content of soluble sugars, sucrose and total carotenoids in roots of plants infested (by this aphid) in relation to the control plants (without aphid) were also determined. In 2007, A. fabae predominated other aphid species (82.5% of total aphid population) feeding on above-ground parts of carrot. The most numerous of A. fabae colonies (total number – 22) and the largest density of aphids in one colony (56 individuals) were recorded on cultivar Kalina F1. The experiment proved a negative (depending on carrot cultivars) effect of A. fabae feeding on the yield of marketable roots. The highest decrease in the yield (above 20%) were found in three of carrot cultivars (Amsterdamska, Berlikumer 2 and Perfekcja). The decrease in yield of root was smaller (below 10 %) in the case the other cultivars (for example – Koral and Nantejska cultivars). Plants infested by the A. fabae were characterized by a decrease of soluble sugars and sucrose content in roots. Different reaction to A. fabae feeding, i.e. increase in sugar content in roots was recorded in three cultivars (Amsterdamska, Flakkese 2 and Dolanka). Decrease or increase in total carotenoids content in carrot roots was affected by A. fabae.
