Climate change has the potential to change the distribution of pests globally and their
resistance to pesticides, thereby threatening global food security in the 21st century …

Genotyping-by-sequencing of reduced-representation libraries has ushered in an era where
genome-wide data can be gotten for any species. Here, I review research on this topic …

Insect crop pests threaten global food security. This threat is amplified through the spread of
nonnative species and through adaptation of native pests to control measures. Adaptations …

Population genomic approaches can characterize dispersal across a single generation
through to many generations in the past, bridging the gap between individual movement and …

Lepidopteran insects are a major threat to global agriculture, causing significant crop losses
and economic damage. Traditional pest control methods are becoming less effective due to …

Diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella), a worldwide migratory pest that is developing strong
resistance to various chemical insecticides. It has been determined that four natural …

BACKGROUND The diamondback moth (DBM) Plutella xylostella has developed resistance
to almost all insecticides used to control it. Populations of DBM in temperate regions mainly …

Biosecurity strategies that aim to restrict the spread of invasive pests can benefit from
knowing where incursions have come from and whether cryptic establishment has taken …

Introduction The genetic structure of species is shaped by natural (eg, terrain, climate) and
non-natural (eg, human activities) factors. Geographical isolation and natural barriers are …

BACKGROUND Migration is a strategy that shifts insects to more favorable habitats in
response to deteriorating local environmental conditions. The ecological factors that govern …
