The genes expression difference between winged and wingless bird cherry-oat aphid Rhopalosiphum padi based on transcriptomic data

This project used RNA sequencing to exhibited the gene expression differences between winged and wingless bird cherry-oat aphid Rhopalosiphum padi under crowded or solitary conditions. By comparative transcriptional analysis of all the developmental stages, this study revealed the molecular mechanisms underlying the aphid wing polyphenism and identify the genes involved in wing development.
