A New Genus and Species of Gall-Forming Fordini (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Rhus wilsonii Hemsl. from Yunnan, China.

ABSTRACT: A new species of gall-forming aphid from China, Qiao jinshaensis gen. et sp. nov., is described from Rhus wilsonii Hemsl. Morphological identification and molecular analyses both support the establishment of a new genus. A diagnosis combining morphological and molecular characters from alate viviparae is provided and specimen metadata are published in an open-access and machine-readable format.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Rhus gall aphid Meitanaphis microgallis (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Eriosomatinae).

Project description:We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of the Chinese Rhus gall aphid Meitanaphis microgallis (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Eriosomatinae: Fordini) by the genome skimming method on an Illunima platform. The assembled mitogenome is 16,191 bp in length with a very high A + T content of 84.3%. This genome consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, 2 rRNAs, and a control region. All the protein-coding genes have a typical ATN initiation codon and TAA termination codon except COX1 and ND4 with a single T as stop codon. The tRNAs ranged in size from 59 to 77 bp and formed a clover-leaf secondary structure except tRNA-Ser (AGN). We constructed the phylogenetic relationship of Fordini aphids including all the Rhus gall aphids, and the ML tree showed that M. microgallis grouped with M. elongallis as its sister group.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Rhus gall aphid Schlechtendalia chinensis (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Eriosomatinae).

Project description:We sequenced the first complete mitochondrial genome for the aphid subfamily, Eriosomatinae, from a Rhus gall aphid, Schlechtendalia chinensis. The mitogenome of S. chinensis is 16,047 bp in length with a high A + T content of 84.2% and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 24 tRNA genes including two extra tRNAPhe , two rRNA genes, a repeat region, and a control region. All protein-coding genes have a typical ATN initiation codon and TAA termination codon except COI and ND4, which terminate with a single T. All 24 tRNAs have the expected clover-leaf secondary structure and range in size from 62 to 73 bp. The lengths of rrnL and rrnS genes are 1274 and 772 bp, respectively. The repeat region is 335 bp and is uncommon among known aphid sequences for starting with a tRNAPhe . The control region is 705 bp in length and is located between rrnS and tRNAIle . We present a phylogeny of mitogenomes showing that S. chinensis is sister to Aphidinae.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the North American Rhus gall aphid Melaphis rhois (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Eriosomatinae).

Project description:We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) for the North American Rhus gall aphid species Melaphis rhois. The mitogenome is 15,436 bp in length with a high A + T content of 82.7%, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a control region. Its gene order is identical to that of the eastern Asian species Schlechtendalia chinensis. All protein-coding genes start with a typical ATN codon and terminate with a TAA codon except COI and ND4 by a single T residue. All the tRNAs except tRNACys formed a clover-leaf secondary structure. The mitogenome phylogeny of Aphididae suggests that M. rhois is most closely related to the eastern Asian Rhus gall aphid S. chinensis with the present sampling scheme.

A new genus and species of Macrosiphini (Hemiptera, Aphididae) from China, living on Isodon eriocalyx.

Project description:The aphid genus Nigritergaphis gen. n. is described, and N. crassisetosa sp. n. on Isodon eriocalyx (Dunn) Kudô (Lamiaceae) from Yunnan, China is described and illustrated. The new species curls and distorts the leaves of this important traditional Chinese medicinal plant, and is evidently specific to this host. Holotype and paratypes are deposited in the National Zoological Museum of China, Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China.

A new species of Chucallis Tao (Hemiptera, Aphididae, Calaphidinae) from China.

Project description:A new species in the aphid genus Chucallis Tao, Chucallis latusigladius Qiao, Jiang & Chen, sp. n. feeding on a species of bamboo, Indocalamus tessellatus (Munro) Keng f., is described. It differs from the only other known species in the genus by having remarkably large marginal processes on abdominal tergite IV. A key to species, morphological descriptions, distributional data and host plant information are provided. The type specimens studied are deposited in the National Zoological Museum of China, Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China.

Taxonomic Revision of the Nearctic Genus Drepanaphis Del Guercio (Hemiptera, Aphididae: Drepanosiphinae).

Project description:The Nearctic aphid genus Drepanaphis Del Guercio, 1909, the largest within the subfamily Drepanosiphinae (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is characterised by distinctive dorsal abdominal tubercles. This study presents a comprehensive taxonomic revision of the genus, expanding the recognised species to 18, including the newly described Drepanaphis robinsoni Malik sp. nov. Detailed descriptions and figures for 44 morphs, encompassing alate viviparous females, oviparous females and males, are provided, with new identification keys for all known species and morphs. The sexual morphs of 15 species, particularly oviparous females, are documented for the first time. Morphometric and principal component analyses (PCA) are employed to distinguish the studied taxa. This study identifies and corrects numerous misidentifications in museum collections, previously labelled as D. acerifoliae, D. choanotricha, D. kanzensis, D. knowltoni, D. parva, D. sabrinae or D. tissoti. Furthermore, it revalidates the distinct status of D. nigricans and D. tissoti, which had been synonymised in earlier works. Current range maps for all species and images of key morphological features obtained through light and scanning electron microscopy are also presented, providing a more complete understanding of this understudied genus.

Comparison of two clones of Myzus Persicae (Sulzer) (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

Project description:The aim of this experiment was to compare the transciptome of the peach-potato aphid (Myzus persicae) clone 4106a (a laboratory insecticide-susceptible standard collected from potato in Scotland in 2000) with clone 5191A (an insecticide resistant aphid clone collected from tobacco in Greece in 2007) to identify which genes are over or underexpressed in the resistant phenotype.
