Interaction between Acyrthosiphon pisum and selenium-treated Pisum sativum [PDF]
Biofortification of plants with selenium (Se) is one of the current trends in agriculture. This treatment enriches plants with this essential element for humans and animals, and also increases plant resistance to stress factors.

Starvation Stress Causes Body Color Change and Pigment Degradation in Acyrthosiphon pisum [PDF]
The pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris), shows body color shifting from red to pale under starvation in laboratory conditions. These body color changes reflect aphid’s adaptation to environmental stress. To understand the color-shifting patterns, the

Silencing of two insulin receptor genes disrupts nymph-adult transition of alate brown citrus aphid [PDF]
Insulin receptors play key roles in growth, development, and polymorphism in insects. Here, we report two insulin receptor genes (AcInR1 and AcInR2) from the brown citrus aphid, Aphis (Toxoptera) citricidus.

The Influence of Host Aphids on the Performance of Aphelinus asychis
The aphid parasitoid Aphelinus asychis Walker is an important biological control agent against many aphid species. In this study, we examined whether the rearing host aphid species (the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum and the grain aphid, Sitobion avenae)
