Abstract
In this paper we review recent work on aspects of aphid biology relate d to evolution and genetics, and suggest some directions for future re search. Sections include aphid annual cycles, sexual reproduction, cyt ogenetics, classical genetics and molecular generics, as well as the i nfluence of annual cycle components on the genetic structure of aphid populations. The related topic of symbiont genome, evolution and funct ion is also briefly reviewed.
