New genomic resources for an invasive mite pest expand the known diversity of pesticide resistance mechanisms and guide development of KASP diagnostic markers
2025-11-17
Abstract excerpt
The redlegged earth mite, Halotydeus destructor , is an invasive pest of grain and pasture crops in Australia. Australian populations are increasingly developing resistance to broad-spectrum pesticides. Here, we assembled a chromosome-level genome for H. destructor , comprising nine chromosomes and totalling approximately 46 Mb. We also generated a genomic dataset from 190 populations collected across thousands...
