Our knowledge of the Aphididae of Africa is as yet very limited, this important group of insects having been but little studied, except in Europe and North America. At present only thirty-five species are recorded for the whole African continent, about the number one can collect in a single afternoon in one's own garden in England.

Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi are major pests on wheat. Natural product‐based aphid resistance holds promise for the sustainable control of these pests. The current literature is discussed, highlighting knowledge gaps and challenges that need addressing. Abstract Cereal aphids, Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum padi, cause severe yield loss in

Morphometric analysis of 176 natural samples of A. grossulariae Kaltenbach, 1843 and A. schneideri (Börner, 1940) was performed, using 308 alate and 750 apterous viviparous females from 25 countries altogether.

Rice root aphids (RRAs) feed on a range of monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants. In choice experiments with two potted plants, RRAs invariably selected and multiplied faster on monocotyledonous rye than on dicotyledonous cannabis, celery, coriander, lettuce, pepper, squash, tomato, or marigold.

Aphis triglochinis and A. grossulariae clones from southern Poland produced fertile hybrid eggs under experimental conditions. Established hybrid clones expressed normal parthenogenetic reproduction but bisexual generations were obtained only in three ...

Salicylate plant defences reduce aphid nutritional quality and increase predator consumption
Salicylic acid‐induced defences diminish Macrosiphum euphorbiae performance and nutritional quality by reducing body protein and lipid content. Ladybird beetle predators (Hippodamia convergens) consumed more low‐quality aphids compared to high‐quality aphids, exhibiting compensatory feeding response to nutrient‐deficient p prey.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Paracolopha morrisoni (Baker, 1919) (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
We have determined the mitochondrial genome of Paracolopha morrisoni (Baker, 1919), a gall-forming aphid collected from Korea. The circular mitogenome of Paracolopha morrisoni is 16,330 bp long including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22

The Russian wheat aphid (RWA), Diuraphis noxia (Kurdjumov), is a serious pest of small grains and can cause losses of about 80% in wheat yields. Chemical control is ineffective against this pest so the combined use of host plant resistance and biological

The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach
Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce
