Summary: WA case study  Climate change = more rapid crop development but lower biomass and yield, most pronounced in 2070.  Climate change is projected to: -

Slow aphid population growth over-summer in grasslands Delay aphid timing of migration Increase aphid population growth rate in crop, leading to Earlier alate (winged morph) formation in crop, due to density

 Synchronisation issues are more important to YDV impacts on yield than the within-crop aphid population growth.  Overall, our simulations suggest YDV impacts on yield will reduce under climate change, although the potential for spread in the crop is greater.
