A chromosome-level genome assembly of Stenchaetothrips biformis and comparative genomic analysis highlights distinct host adaptations among thrips

Abstract Insects have a limited host range due to genomic adaptation. Thysanoptera, commonly known as thrips, occupies distinct feeding habitats, but there is a lack of comparative genomic analyses and limited genomic resources available. In this study, the chromosome-level genome of Stenchaetothrip...
