Microbiome diversity of cotton aphids (Aphis gossypii) is associated with host alternation
Scientific Reports, 2021 Aphids are infected by a series of bacteria that can help them survive on specific host plants. However, the associations between aphids and these bacteria are not clear, and the bacterial communities in many aphid species are poorly characterized. Here,

Variation and diversification of the microbiome of Schlechtendalia chinensis on two alternate host plants. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Schlechtendalia chinensis, a gall-inducing aphid, has two host plants in its life cycle. Its wintering host is a moss (typically Plagiomnium maximoviczii) and its main host is Rhus chinensis (Sumac), on which it forms galls during the summer.

A novel gene REPTOR2 activates the autophagic degradation of wing disc in pea aphid
eLife, 2023 Wing dimorphism in insects is an evolutionarily adaptive trait to maximize insect fitness under various environments, by which the population could be balanced between dispersing and reproduction. Most studies concern the regulatory mechanisms underlying

Rapid Identification of Aphid Species by Headspace GC-MS and Discriminant Analysis
Insects, 2023 Aphids are a ubiquitous group of pests in agriculture that cause serious losses. For sustainable aphid identification, it is necessary to develop a precise and fast aphid identification tool. A new simple chemotaxonomy approach to rapidly identify aphids
