Genome Sequence of the Pea Aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum

Stephen Richards, +223 more
- 01 Jan 2010 - 
TL;DR: The genome of the pea aphid shows remarkable levels of gene duplication and equally remarkable gene absences that shed light on aspects of aphid biology, most especially its symbiosis with Buchnera.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wolbachia as a bacteriocyte-associated nutritional mutualist

TL;DR: Results indicate that bacteriocyte-associated nutritional mutualism can evolve from facultative and prevalent microbial associates like Wolbachia, highlighting a previously unknown aspect of the parasitism-mutualism evolutionary continuum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Host Plant Specialization Governed by Facultative Symbiont

TL;DR: In North America and Europe, the pea aphid encompasses ecologically and genetically distinct host races, offering a model system for studies on sympatric speciation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolutionary Relationships of Three New Species of Enterobacteriaceae Living as Symbionts of Aphids and Other Insects

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses of partial sequences of gyrB and recA are consistent with previous analyses limited to 16S rRNA gene sequences and yield improved confidence of the evolutionary relationships of these symbionts.
