Pea aphids have several alternative responses to the detection of alarm pheromone produced by conspecifics. One of these, dropping from the feeding site to the ground, is potentially costly owing to the risk of desiccation-induced mortality on the ground before another host plant can be reached. Bot
## Background: Many insects undergo a period of arrested development, called diapause, to avoid seasonally recurring adverse conditions. whilst the phenology and endocrinology of insect diapause have been well studied, there has been comparatively little research into the developmental details of d
The relationship between the structure of nineteen 2,2-dimethylchromene derivatives and their effects on aphid morphogenesis were investigated in a pink clone of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisurn (Harris). Three bioassay systems were used: (1) wing induction-the induction of winged (alate) progeny
