EPG recordings of stylet activities of R. padi within seedling leaves of maize (relatively resistant Waza cultivar). Horizontal axis—time (s); vertical axis—amplitude (mV). Np—non-probing; (C)—transition of the insect stylets through epidermis and mesophyll cells; (E1)—salivation into sieve elements; (E2)—phloem sap ingestion; (F)—mechanical movements of stylets associated with difficulties during tissue puncturing; (G)—xylem sap uptake.
