Plagiognathus chrysanthemi sucks on herbaceous plants and it is very polyphagous feeding on many different host plants. These include species from different plant families, including daisy family (Asteraceae) and legume (Fabaceae). The bugs suck especially on the immature reproductive organs of the plants. [5]
