Abstract
The physical interface between a phloem-feeding insect and its host
plant is a single cell buried deep within the plant tissue. As such, the molecular
interactions between these notorious agricultural pests and the crop plants upon
which they feed are diffi cult to study. ‘Omic’ technologies have proved crucial in
revealing some of the fascinating detail of the molecular interplay between these
partners. Here we review the role of proteomics in identifying putative components
of the secreted saliva of phloem-feeding insects, particularly aphids, and discuss the
limited knowledge concerning the function of these proteins.
