When history repeats itself: exploring the genetic architecture of host-plant adaptation in two closely related lepidopteran species.

When history repeats itself: exploring the genetic architecture of host-plant adaptation in two closely related lepidopteran species.

The genus Ostrinia includes two allopatric maize pests across Eurasia, namely the European corn borer (ECB, O. nubilalis) and the Asian corn borer (ACB, O. furnacalis). A third species, the Adzuki bean borer (ABB, O. scapulalis), occurs in sympatry with both the ECB and the ACB. The ABB mostly feeds...
