Journal Article
Ferry, N., Stavroulakis, S., Guan, W., Davison, G., Bell, H., Weaver, R., …Gatehouse, A. (2011). Molecular interactions between wheat and the insect herbivore sitobion avenae (cereal aphid); analysis of changes to the wheat proteome. Proteomics, 11(10), 1985-2002. https://doi.org/10.1002/pmic.200900801

Aphids are major insect pests of cereal crops, acting as virus vectors as well as causing direct damage. The responses of wheat to infestation by cereal aphid (Sitobion avenae) were investigated in a proteomic analysis. Approximately, 500 protein spo...

Insect-resistant biotech crops and their impacts on beneficial arthropods (2011)
Journal Article
Gatehouse, A., Ferry, N., Edwards, M., & Bell, H. (2011). Insect-resistant biotech crops and their impacts on beneficial arthropods. Philosophical Transactions B: Biological Sciences, 366(1569), 1438-52. https://doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2010.0330

With a projected population of 10 billion by 2050, an immediate priority for agriculture is to achieve increased crop yields in a sustainable and cost-effective way. The concept of using a transgenic approach was realized in the mid-1990s with the co... Read More about Insect-resistant biotech crops and their impacts on beneficial arthropods.
