Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus) is a widespread insect pest of rice in East Asia. Previous studies have shown the long-distance migrations undertaken by L. striatellus, but have not provided molecular evidence to support this. RESULTS: Long-distance immigration has occurred in the north-east coastal rice-growing region of China. Using the specific-locus amplified fragment...
