What temps can aphids survive in?

Accordingly tests to examine the intensity of cold that aphids could survive were made at -20' F, O0 F, 10' F, and at 26' F. The aphid material was obtained from parthenogenetic cultures maintained on suitable host plants in the greenhouse at 70" F, 65% R. H., and at an 18-hour photo- period.
