The cotton - melon aphid Aphis gossypii is an extremely polyphagous sap feeding insect which infests more than 900 crops worldwide and posing a severe threat to farmers. The salivary proteins acts as interface between aphid and their host plant.However, the cotton aphid salivary proteome was not studied yet. Identifying the salivary proteins helps in better understanding of aphid adaptation to their host plant which aids us to search for novel plant genetic source.
