Rapid transcriptional plasticity of duplicated gene clusters enables a clonally reproducing aphid to colonise diverse plant species

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Thomas C. Mathers from the Earlham Institute, Norwich Research Park, Norwich , UZ, UK have published the research work: Rapid transcriptional plasticity of duplicated gene clusters enables a clonally reproducing aphid to colonise diverse plant species, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors show that genetically identical individuals are able to colonise distantly related host species through the differential regulation of genes belonging to aphid-expanded families. The authors demonstrate the functional significance of this rapid transcriptional change using (RNAi)-mediated knock-down of genes belonging to the cathepsin B family. The authors provide evidence . . .
