Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP450s) play a variety of physiological roles, including pesticide resistance, plant allelochemical detoxification, and hormone metabolism catalysis. However, limited information is available on the classification and expression profiles of the CYP450 gene family in aphid species. This is the first study to identify the cytochrome P450 gene family in 19 aphid species at the whole genome level. A total of 1100 CYP450 genes were identified in 19 aphid species. Three hundred CYP450 genes belonged to six cereal crop aphid species, which were further classified into four subfamilies according to the phylogenetic relationship. The conserved motifs, exon-intron structures, and genomic organization of the same subfamilies were similar. Predictions of subcellular localization revealed that the endoplasmic reticulum harbored the majority of CYP450 proteins. In Sitobion avenae and Rhopalosiphum maidis, the increase in the CYP450 gene was primarily caused by segmental duplication events. However, only tandem duplication occurred in the CYP450 gene family of Diuraphis noxia, Rhopalosiphum padi, Schizaphis graminum, and Sitobion miscanthi. Synteny analysis found three continuous colinear CYP450 gene pairs among six cereal crop aphid species. Furthermore, we obtained the expression profiles of four cereal crop aphids, including R. padi, D. noxia, S. graminum, and S. avenae. Differential expression analysis provided growth stage specificity genes, tissue specificity genes, organ specificity genes and some detoxification metabolic genes among these four cereal crop aphids. Meanwhile, their expression patterns were showed. The related functions and pathways of CYP450s were revealed by GO and KEGG enrichment analysis. Above all, we picked the differentially expressed CYP450 genes from all of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). These differentially expressed CYP450 genes provided some new potential candidates for aphid control and management. This work establishes the foundation for further investigations into the regulatory functions of the CYP450 gene family in aphid species and beyond.
