XylFeed – Analysing DC-EPG waveform variables for European spittlebugs and sharpshooters
The software “XylFeed” is designed as MS Excel macro, developed to analyse essential DC-EPG (Direct Current-Electrical Penetration Graph) waveform variables for European xylem sap-feeding insects (spittlebugs and sharpshooters). DC-EPG waveforms must be manually marked in ‘Stylet+a’ (EPG Systems, Wageningen, Netherlands) or comparable software previously to allow a calculation in “XylFeed”. The software enables the analysis of the probing and feeding activities of European xylem sap-feeding insects through a calculation of sequential and non-sequential EPG variables. A detailed description of the software usage is provided in the Supplementary Material of the connected publication, while software output variables are listed and defined within the software.
