Abstract excerpt
The pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum has been established in North America for at least a century and occurs on a broad range of host plants. Despite its importance as a crop pest, there is little understanding of the genetic structure of its populations or the extent of genetic divergence associated with different host plant utilization. This study examined the extent of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) diversity among 35...
