Insight into the durability of plant resistance to aphids from a demo‐genetic study of Aphis gossypii in melon crops

Resistance breakdown has been observed following the deployment of plant cultivars resistant to pests. Assessing the durability of a resistance requires long‐term experiments at least at a regional scale. We collected such data for melon resistance conferred by the Vat gene cluster to melon aphids....
