Insects comprise the largest species composition in the entire animal kingdom and possess
a vast undiscovered genetic diversity and gene pool that can be better explored using …

A diverse range of novel molecular (DNA) markers are now available for entomological
investigations. Both DNA and protein markers have revolutionized the biological sciences …

We have used a new technique to identify discrete genetic markers in aphids, a family in
which biochemical and morphological genetic polymorphisms are rare. The new technique …

Aphids are notorious pests of world agriculture. Even so, uncertainty persists as to their
capacity for successful aerial dispersal. Evidence exists that, under some conditions, aphids …

Cyclical parthenogens, including aphids, are attractive models for comparing the genetic
outcomes of sexual and asexual reproduction, which determine their respective evolutionary …

As French populations of the aphid Sitobion avenae exhibit a range of reproductive modes,
this species provides a good opportunity for studying the evolution of breeding system …

In a previous study, samples of the grain aphid Sitobion avenae (F.) were collected from
wheat and adjacent cocksfoot hosts in a population thought to be primarily parthenogenetic …

In this paper we review recent work on aspects of aphid biology related to evolution and
genetics, and suggest some directions for future research. Sections include aphid annual …

Genetic structuring of populations reflects the interaction of genetic drift, mutation, migration
and selection, with influences from life history. Aphids are interesting in this regard as they …
