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,

The miR-9b microRNA mediates dimorphism and development of wing in aphids
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance Evolution of various wings plays an important role in the success of insects in environmental adaptation. During evolution, aphids deploy a wing dimorphism strategy to escape unfavorable conditions.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance Symbioses between animals and microbes often involve host control of symbionts to harness a benefit. In aphids, Buchnera symbionts produce amino acids for their hosts, enabling these insects to survive solely on plant sap. Buchnera abundance

Exploring the Dynamics of Virulent and Avirulent Aphids: A Case for a "Within Plant" Refuge [PDF]
, 2021 The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is an invasive pest that can cause severe yield loss to soybeans in the northcentral United States. A tactic to counter this pest is the use of aphid-resistant soybean varieties. However, the occurrence of virulent biotypes can alter plant physiology and impair the use of this management ...

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.
