Aphis glycines |
The soybean aphid (Aphis glycines) is an insect pest of soybean (Glycine max) that is exotic to North America.[1] The soybean aphid is native to Asia.[2] It has been described as a common pest of soybeans in China[3] and as an occasional pest of soybeans in Indonesia,[4] Japan,[5] Korea,[6] Malaysia,[2] the Philippines,[7] and Thailand.[8] The soybean aphid was first documented in North America in Wisconsin in July 2000.[9] Ragsdale et al. (2004) noted that the soybean aphid probably arrived in North America earlier than 2000, but remained undetected for a period of time.[1] Venette and Ragsdale (2004) suggested that Japan probably served as the point of origin for the soybean aphid's North American invasion.[10] By 2003, the soybean aphid had been documented in Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.[10] Together, these states accounted for 89% of the 63,600,000 acres (257,000 km2) of soybean planted in the United States in 2007.[11]
