Was Dan Janzen (1977) right about aphid clones being a "super-organism", i.e. a single "evolutionary individual"? : new insights from the use of molecular marker systems [PDF]
Dan Janzen proposed in a paper in 1977 (loc. cit.), that a clone of aphids and for that matter dandelions consists, respectively, of one large ‘super-organism’.

Determination of Resistance Levels of Myzus persicae (Sulzer) by Biochemical Methods [PDF]
Peach/potato aphid Myzus persicae (Sulzer) has developed three mechanisms of resistance: overproduction of one or two closely related carboxylesterases (E4 and FE4), production of modified acetylcholinesterase (MACE and knockdown resistance ...

Evaluation of the susceptibility of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, to a selection of novel biorational insecticides using an artificial diet [PDF]
An improved technique was developed to assay the toxicity of insecticides against aphids using an artificial diet. The susceptibility of the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) (Hemiptera: Aphidoidea) was determined for a selection of novel ...
