Microarray-based transcriptomic analysis of differences between long-term gregarious and solitarious desert locusts.

Microarray-based transcriptomic analysis of differences between long-term gregarious and solitarious desert locusts.

Desert locusts (Schistocerca gregaria) show an extreme form of phenotypic plasticity and can transform between a cryptic solitarious phase and a swarming gregarious phase. The two phases differ extensively in behavior, morphology and physiology but very little is known about the molecular basis of t...
