The effect of glucosinolate (GSL) sinigrin on the efficiency of acquisition of the turnip mosaic virus by Myzus persicae and Brevicoryne brassicae from homogenized Sinapis alba and Brassica nigra leaves through a parafilm membrane was investigated. No significant difference was found in the virus transmission by both aphid species after one minute acquisition of infectious sap through a parafilm membrane. On the other hand, when 1 % of sinigrin was added to the infectious homogenate from S. alba leaves, a significantly lower acquisition of the virus was observed in M. persicae while in B. brassicae it was slightly enhanced in comparison with the control.
