蚜虫基因组及功能基因组研究进展

Advances in research on aphid genomics and functional genomics

蚜虫作为刺吸式昆虫和植物病毒的传播者,已经成为严重威胁农业生产发展的重要害虫之一。近几年随着分子生物学的发展,尤其是基因组测序技术的进步,蚜虫基因组学和功能基因组学取得了重大突破,使我们对蚜虫特殊的生物学特征有了深层次的认识。本文就蚜虫与内共生菌关系、表型可塑性、发育和生殖、系统进化、解毒酶基因家族以及唾液腺方面在基因组和功能基因组水平上的研究进展进行了综述。

Aphids are one of most important agricultural pests which not only damage plants by feeding on their fluids but also transmit viruses.Advances in molecular biology,especially genome sequencing technology,have resulted in a better understanding of aphid genomics and functional genomics.This in turn has allowed us to gain a better understanding of the unique biological characteristics of aphids.Here we review progress in research on the relationship between aphids and symbionts,phenotypic plasticity,development,reproduction,phylogenetics,detoxification enzymes and aphid salivary glands.
