The genetics of host plant acceptance in pea aphids
Examining the genetic basis of host-associated phenotypes in pea aphids. RAD sequencing of an F2 cross between two pea aphid host associated races (specialised on alfalfa - Medicago sativa- and pea - Pisum sativum). Used in combination with behaviour assays to conduct QTL and regional heritability analyses based on a high-resolution linkage map.
