A comparison of the amino acid profiles of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, and the social aphid species, Pemphigus spyrothecae (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

The relative proportions of free amino acids as well as the amino acid compositions of hydrolysed unprecipitated peptides and hydrolysed whole carcasses were quantified for two aphid species: the gall-dwelling social aphid Pemphigus spyrothecae and the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum. The whole-tissue...
