An aphid host-responsive RNA transcript that migrates systemically in plants promotes aphid reproduction

Yazhou Chen, Archana Singh, Gemy Kaithakottil…·Saskia A. Hogenhout

The paper identifies an aphid gene family that translocates RNA into plants, promoting aphid reproduction and indicating cross-kingdom RNA deployment.

Sex-specific changes in the aphid DNA methylation landscape

Thomas C. Mathers, Sam T. Mugford, Lawrence Percival‐Alwyn…·Cock van Oosterhout

This study analyzes DNA methylation and gene expression differences between male and asexual female morphs of the green peach aphid, finding sex-specific methylation patterns linked to sexual differentiation.

A clonally reproducing generalist aphid pest colonises diverse host plants by rapid transcriptional plasticity of duplicated gene clusters

Thomas C Mathers, Yazhou Chen, Gemy Kaithakottil…·Saskia A Hogenhout

This study shows that the green peach aphid uses rapid transcriptional changes of duplicated genes to colonize diverse host plants without genetic specialization.
