Abstract excerpt
Corn stalk borer Sesamia nonagrioides (Lefebvre) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is among the most important insect pests of corn in the Mediterranean basin. The mitochondrial DNA of this insect was purified and a restriction map was constructed. The size of the mtDNA genome is 16.3 kb. Genetic analysis of four corn stalk borer populations, collected from Greece (three populations) and Spain (one population), was...
