Feeding behavior of Sitobion avenae F. (Homoptera: Aphididae) on oats (Avena sativa cv. ''Clintland 64'') was electronically monitored, and waveforms corresponding to salivation, ingestion, and sieve element penetration described. During 90 min plant access, aphids ingested from phloem for 0-43 min (mean: 8.1 min) and non-phloem for 0-60 min (mean: 19 min). Only 65% of the aphids tested made phloem contact within 90 min, contacting phloem after 18-85 min (mean: 32 min). No significant differences was observed in the feeding behavior of aphids carrying barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) from that of non-viruliferous aphids. Penetration of a sieve element was a prerequisite for BYDV transmission but did not insure transmission. Penetration of one sieve element resulted in a 65% chance of transmission independent of the duration of phloem contact. The chance of transmission increased with increasing number of sieve element penetrations. Inoculation of oat seedlings with single, viruliferous aphids for 90 min is estimated to cause 54% of the plants to be infected. Also it is estimated that no transmission can occur with plant access periods shorter than 17 min.
