Biological and genetic features of introduced aphid populations in agroecosystems.

Current opinion in insect science - 1 Apr 2018

Figueroa Christian C, Fuentes-Contreras Eduardo, Molina-Montenegro Marco A, Ramírez Claudio C

Abstract excerpt

In agroecosystems, introduced aphids that reproduce by obligate parthenogenesis (OP) show strong biased representation of a few genotypes (superclones), whereas species with cyclical parthenogenesis (CP) exhibit the opposite trend with many unique genotypes. We analyzed the biological and genetic features of 23 different aphid species introduced in different geographic areas and climates, finding putative...
