genomic and cytogenetic localization of the carotenoid genes in the aphid genome. | data published in the scientific literature suggests a possible link between chromosomal rearrangements involving autosomes 1 and 3 and the presence of red morphs in the peach-potato aphid myzus persicae (sulzer). in order to begin a study of this relationship, we analysed the genomic and chromosomal location of genes involved in carotenoid biosynthesis in m. persicae and the pea aphid, acyrthosiphon pisum (harris), since carotenoids are the basis of the colour in many aphid species. genomic ana ... | 2016 | 27585067 |
