Abstract:Background
Aphis gossypii Glover (Hemiptera: Aphididae), a worldwide polyphagous phloem-feeding agricultural pest, has three wing morphs (winged parthenogenetic female, gynopara and male) in the life cycle, in which the exclusive males could fly from second hosts to winter hosts and are essential for gene exchange of cotton aphid populations from different host or regions. However, the molecular mechanism of wing differentiation of male in A. gossypii remains unclear.
