Aphids
Historically the diverse areas of communication research have rarely met, and this factor probably prompted my feeling that the order of chapter delivery in this book was counter-intuitive. Naturally our investigation of any communication system has always been heavily influenced by our own language, and the historical progress of research has broadly progressed 'down' from humans to other mamm...
متن کاملUnique haplotypes in ant-attended aphids and widespread haplotypes in non-attended aphids
Aphid species within the genus Tuberculatus Mordvilko (Hemiptera: Aphididae) exhibit a variety of interactions with ants, ranging from close associations to non-attendance. A previous study indicated that despite wing possession, ant-attended Tuberculatus species exhibited low dispersal rates compared with non-attended species. This study examined if presence or absence of mutualistic interacti...

Seasonal occurrence of aphids and aphidophagous insects was monitored for six years (2006 2011) from full leaf expansion in May to leaf fall in October variety pecan trees that were not treated with insecticides. Aphid outbreaks occurred two times per season, once in the spring and again in the late summer. Yellow pecan and blackmargined aphids exceeded the recommended treatment thresholds one ...
متن کاملAphids: A Model for Polyphenism and Epigenetics
Environmental conditions can alter the form, function, and behavior of organisms over short and long timescales, and even over generations. Aphid females respond to specific environmental cues by transmitting signals that have the effect of altering the development of their offspring. These epigenetic phenomena have positioned aphids as a model for the study of phenotypic plasticity. The molecu...
متن کاملHow aphids lose their marbles.
Insects provide examples of many cunning stratagems to cope with the challenges of living in a world dominated by surface forces. Despite being the current masters of the land environment, they are at constant risk of being entrapped in liquids, which they prevent by having waxy and hairy surfaces. The problem is particularly acute in an enclosed space, such as a plant gall. Using secreted wax ...
