Genetics of Color Polymorphism in the Pea Aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum
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 ...
متن کاملAPMicroDB: A microsatellite database of Acyrthosiphon pisum
Pea aphids represent a complex genetic system that could be used for QTL analysis, genetic diversity and population genetics studies. Here, we described the development of first microsatellite repeat database of the pea aphid (APMicroDB), accessible at "http://deepaklab.com/aphidmicrodb". We identified 3,40,233 SSRs using MIcroSAtellite (MISA) tool that was distributed in 14,067 (out of 23,924)...
متن کاملEMS Mutagenesis in the Pea Aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum
In aphids, clonal individuals can show distinct morphologic traits in response to environmental cues. Such phenotypic plasticity cannot be studied with classical genetic model organisms such as Caenorhabditis elegans or Drosophila melanogaster. The genetic basis of this biological process remain unknown, as mutations affecting this process are not available in aphids. Here, we describe a protoc...
متن کاملGene knockdown by RNAi in the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum
BACKGROUND RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful method to inhibit gene expression in a sequence specific manner. RESULTS Here, we described the development of RNAi by micro-injection of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) in the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum. Injection of dsRNA into whole aphid body induced the silencing of two marker genes with different expression patterns: the ubiquitously expres...
متن کاملSpiroplasma symbiont of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Insecta: Homoptera).
From a laboratory strain of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, we discovered a previously unknown facultative endosymbiotic bacterium. Molecular phylogenetic analysis based on 16S ribosomal DNA revealed that the bacterium is a member of the genus Spiroplasma. The Spiroplasma organism showed stable vertical transmission through successive generations of the host. Injection of hemolymph from inf...
