Acyrthosiphon pisum maxillary
Acyrthosiphon pisum
A long-established parthenogenetic clone (LL01) of A. pisum Harris was maintained on young broad bean plants (Vicia faba L. cv. Aguadulce) at 21 °C, with a photoperiod of 16 h light/8 h dark. To obtain a source of synchronized aphids, wingless adults were left on seedlings, allowing them to produce nymphs, and were removed after 4 h. Synchronized L1 nymphal instars were left on plants and sampled at different stages, depending on the experiments. The total RNA was isolated from 40 dissected retort organs, maxillary (MXR) from the L4 nymphal instars collected during the time period between 46-48 hours from the beginning of L4 instar.
