pisum

Acyrthosiphon pisum is a rather large aphid whose body can reach 4mm in adults.

Pisiform bones in the wrist resembled pisum, which is Latin for "peas."

It is possible that the morphological development observed in diapausing A. pisum is exceptional.

The toponym of Pishill comes from pisum, Latin for pea.

Late development of the sexually-produced A. pisum embryo, particularly during and after katatrepsis, appeared to be temperature dependent.

Her research has focused on the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum and its bacterial symbionts.

Pisum, cross-fertilisation of.

The pea is most commonly the small spherical seed or the seed-pod of the pod fruit Pisum sativum.

Pisum abyssinicum (syn.

The word pea is believed to take its etymology from the Latin pisum which taincame from the Greek pison.

Pisum sativum (Pea)

Acyrthosiphon pisum (pea aphid)

It lives on Pisum and on Lathyrus and on other plants from Fabaceae family.

Among primary endosymbionts of insects, the best studied are the pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum) and its endosymbiont Buchnera sp.

Gregor Mendel discovered the genetic laws of inheritance in this fashion by studying Pisum sativum (pea) inherited traits such as shape.

Discussion The data suggest that sexually-produced A. pisum embryos undergo a period of diapause, although a diapause different to that commonly presented in the literature.

This rust fungus occurs on both cultivated and wild plants of Vicia, Lathyrus, Pisum and Lens.

The finding that A. pisum embryos maintained at 16 C showed considerable malformation may be a consequence of surpassing the normal thermal limits of developmental regulation.

Buchnera aphidicola a member of the Proteobacteria, is the primary endosymbiont of aphids, and has been studied in the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum.

The name pease porridge is derived from the archaic noun pease (plural peasen), derived in turn from the Latin word pisum.

It is found in a variety of plants, including peas (pisum sativum), Acacia senegal, Gymnema sylvestris and others, and also comprises about 8-9% of beeswax.

Researchers at the University of Arizona have found that the genome of pea aphids (Acyrthosiphon pisum) contains multiple genes that were horizontally transferred from fungi.

The pea aphid ( Acyrthosiphon pisum : Hemiptera, Aphidoidea) ostensibly undergoes embryonic diapause as an over-wintering egg (figure 1).
