Phylogenetics and evolution of the eastern Asian-eastern North American disjunct aphid tribe, Hormaphidini (Hemiptera: Aphididae).
124
TL;DR: The estimated divergence dates of Asian and North American clades in both genera was 20-30 million years ago, consistent with the idea that aphids may have experienced the same vicariance events as those of their host plants.

The identity of Pentalonia nigronervosa Coquerel and P. caladii van der Goot (Hemiptera: Aphididae) based on molecular and morphometric analysis
TL;DR: Pentalonia nigronervosa (sensu Hardy 1931) samples from banana and from Zingiberaceae and Araceae species exhibit fixed differences in DNA sequence in mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (“DNA barcode”) and in the nuclear gene elongation factor 1α, and have morphometric differences, including non-overlapping ranges in the length of the distal rostral segment.

Hyojoong Kim,Seunghwan Lee +1 more
TL;DR: This study reconstructs the molecular systematics of Megoura (Aphididae) using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences, revealing host-preference associated phylogenetic relationships and identifying effective DNA regions for species-level phylogeny.

TL;DR: Researchers identified a novel family of secreted insect proteins, BICYCLE, linked to plant gall development, which may regulate gall formation through differential expression of plant genes, in a molecular arms race between aphids and their host plants.

Confidence limits on phylogenies: an approach using the bootstrap.
TL;DR: The recently‐developed statistical method known as the “bootstrap” can be used to place confidence intervals on phylogenies and shows significant evidence for a group if it is defined by three or more characters.

Estimation of the number of nucleotide substitutions in the control region of mitochondrial DNA in humans and chimpanzees.
Koichiro Tamura,Masatoshi Nei +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new mathematical method for estimating the number of transitional and transversional substitutions per site, as well as the total number of nucleotide substitutions was proposed, taking into account excess transitions, unequal nucleotide frequencies, and variation of substitution rate among different sites.
