| another look at the phylogenetic relationships and intercontinental biogeography of eastern asian - north american rhus gall aphids (hemiptera: aphididae: eriosomatinae): evidence from mitogenome sequences via genome skimming. | the rhus gall aphids are sometimes referred to as subtribe melaphidina (aphididae: eriosomatinae: fordini) and comprise a unique group that forms galls on the primary host plants, rhus. we examined the evolutionary relationships within the melaphidina aphids using sequences of the complete mitochondrial genome and with samples of 11 of the 12 recognized species representing all six genera. bayesian, maximum likelihood and parsimony analyses of the mitochondrial genome data support five well-supp ... | 2017 | 28533083 |
