Plant-derived differences in the composition of aphid honeydew and their effects on colonies of aphid-tending ants

In plant–ant–hemipteran interactions, ants visit plants to consume the honeydew produced by phloem-feeding hemipterans. If genetically based differences in plant phloem chemistry change the chemical composition of hemipteran honeydew, then the plant's genetic constitution could have indirect ef...
