Novel molecular approach to define pest species status and tritrophic interactions from historical Bemisia specimens
Abstract Museum specimens represent valuable genomic resources for understanding host-endosymbiont/parasitoid evolutionary relationships, resolving species complexes and nomenclatural problems. However, museum collections suffer DNA degradation, making them challenging for molecular-based studies. H...
