The natural occurrence of secondary bacterial symbionts in aphids
, 2016 1. Many insects host secondary bacterial symbionts that are known to have wide‐ranging effects on their hosts, from host‐plant use to resistance against natural enemies.

Plant Protection Science, 2004 The abundance of cereal aphids on winter wheat tillers and ears was determined in two field managements (integrated and ecological) at Dolná Malanta, Slovakia, over the years 1999-2001.

Bacterial endosymbionts protect aphids in the field and alter parasitoid community composition.
Ecology, 2016 It has become increasingly evident that many organisms rely on microbial symbionts for defense against natural enemies, but the ecological importance of defensive symbionts for natural communities still needs to be investigated.

Ant-aphid interactions in multispecies ant communities: Some ecological and ethological aspects
European Journal of Entomology, 2005 Investigations of the interactions between aphids and ants in multispecies ant communities and an experimental investigation of some ethological aspects of ant-aphid interactions were carried out in mixed forests at Novosibirsk Academic Centre, from 1998-

European Journal of Entomology, 2015 Aphids are either monoecious living either on trees or herbaceous plants, or heteroecious, which involves host alternating between a tree (primary host) and a herbaceous plant (secondary host).

Aphids, Ants and Ladybirds: a mathematical model predicting their population dynamics [PDF]
Open Journal of Mathematical Sciences, Vol. 3 (2019), Issue 1, pp.
139-151,, 2019 The interaction between aphids, ants and ladybirds has been investigated from an ecological point of view since many decades, while there are no attempts to describe it from a mathematical point of view. This paper introduces a new mathematical model to describe the within-season population dynamics in an ecological patch of a system composed by aphids,

, 2017 Summary Agricultural landscapes are characterised by dynamic crop mosaics changing in composition and configuration over space and time. Although semi-natural habitat has been often shown to contribute to pest biological control, the effects of ...

Aphid Cluster Recognition and Detection in the Wild Using Deep Learning Models [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Aphid infestation poses a significant threat to crop production, rural communities, and global food security. While chemical pest control is crucial for maximizing yields, applying chemicals across entire fields is both environmentally unsustainable and costly.

A facultative endosymbiont in aphids can provide diverse ecological benefits
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2015 Ecologically important traits of insects are often affected by facultative bacterial endosymbionts. This is best studied in the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum, which is frequently infected by one or more of eight facultative symbiont species.
