Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The white-backed planthopper, Sogatella furcifera Horváth is a major rice pest in Asia, causing direct phloem-feeding damage and transmitting Southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV). Despite its economic importance in India, information on its genetic diversity, population connectivity and demographic history remains limited. METHODS AND RESULTS: Mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (mtCOI)...
