Too bad Canine Heritage is going out of the DNA testing business. I've had 4 mixed breed dogs tested by them, two of them also by Wisdom. Didn't send any pictures to either. Canine Heritage was quite accurate on all 4, whereas Wisdom faltered on both less than at least 50%.
The lettuce root aphid is a soil dweller that attacks lettuce roots in spring and summer, causing lettuce plants to wilt and occasionally die. In fall, this species often moves to poplar trees, where it overwinters in the egg stage and produces leaf galls in spring.
Summary: Aphids, sometimes called greenfly, are small insects that suck plant juices from stems and leaves and can severely stunt or even kill their host plants. Early detection and control with insecticidal soap are the keys to managing aphids in greenhouses, house plants, gardens, and landscapes.o get enough of the protein that they need aphids must take in a lot more sugar (plant sap) than they can use -- excess sugar is expelled through the body as a concentrated sugar solution called honeydew. This honeydew may drip from the plant and attract sugar-loving insects like ants and wasps.
