Genetics of color polymorphism in the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum.

Journal of insect science (Online) - 1 Jan 2010

Caillaud Marina C, Losey John E

Abstract excerpt

The genetic basis of color polymorphism is explored in the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) (Homoptera: Sternorrhyncha), in which two color morphs have been described (pink or green). Laboratory crosses and a Mendelian genetic analysis reveal that color polymorphism in pea aphids is determined by a single biallelic locus, which we name colorama, with alleles P and p, pink being dominant to green. The...
