Reactions that are intended to guarantee survival of the individual and of the species can be offered as a definition of the adaptations of aphids. They may be behavioral, as epitomized by bribing predatory ants with honeydew or jumping off plants to escape predatory ants, or chemical, as evidenced by emitting alarm signals through odors of damaged parts or by secreting pheromones. T.A. Novgorodova of the Institute of Animal Systematics and Ecology in the Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences offers a comparison, from June 21, 2001, of ant-friendly aphids that save honeydew for ants in exchange for bodyguard protection with ant-hostile aphids that toss honeydew as it is produced to confuse predators as to exact colony whereabouts.
No, green aphids are coloured that way due to pigments called carotenes.
Yes, female aphids can give birth to males, but they cannot do so parthenogenically. Normally a female would reproduce asexually - she would give birth to exact clones of herself, but if she mates, she will then be capable of giving birth to unique aphids, both male and female.
Aphids from peas are treated with biopesticides.Immature Pods of pea are used in vegetable hence synthetic pesticides are not desirable.
Plant aphids can come from other plants, as they are good at traveling from one host plant to another. They can also be brought in by wind or on animals. Lastly, aphids can reproduce rapidly, so a small infestation can quickly grow into a larger one.
Sexual reproduction allows aphids to produce genetically diverse offspring that are better able to adapt to changing environmental conditions. This genetic diversity can help aphids survive and thrive in different types of environments and increase their overall reproductive success.
Aphids are sexual.
Aphids suck sap.
You attract aphids by putting out roses.
Chickadees, Hummingbirds, and Titmice are birds that will eat rose aphids. Another bird that eats rose aphids is the Warbler.
