The effect of sewage sludge application to an agricultural soil on the fecundity of the Rose Grain aphid (Metopolophium dirhodum). [PDF]
A pot trial was used to assess the effect of amending soil with sewage sludge on the number of offspring produced by individual Rose Grain Aphids. Results demonstrated that the highest application rate (100 t.d.s.

Generalist predators disrupt parasitoid aphid control by direct and coincidental intraguild predation [PDF]
, 2011 Generalist predators and parasitoids are considered to be important regulators of aphids. The former not only feed on these pests, but might also consume parasitoids at all stages of development.

Large-scale gene discovery in the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum (Hemiptera) [PDF]
, 2006 Aphids are the leading pests in agricultural crops. A large-scale sequencing of 40,904 ESTs from the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum was carried out to define a catalog of 12,082 unique transcripts.

Natural Product Reports, 2013 Chemical signalling between aphids (small insects that suck plant sap) formating and avoidance of antagonistic organisms, and between aphids and plants for location of hosts or avoidance of unsuitable plants, employs minute levels of small lipophilic molecules (SLMs), termed "semiochemicals". These semiochemicals, which include sex and alarm pheromones,

The Canadian Entomologist, 1873 The following notes were suggested by “Observations,” &c" on Aphides in The Canadian Entomologist for July, 1873. The species noticed on Rumex crispus seems to have very much resemblance to A rumicis of Europe; some other species of N. America do not differ from those of Europe, but have been probably introduced by means of shipping. With regard to
