Chromosome-level genome assembly of Bactrocera dorsalis reveals its adaptation and invasion mechanisms
Jiang et al. sequence the genome of Bactrocera dorsalis, a destructive and invasive agricultural pest. Insights from this chromosome-level assembly shed light on molecular adaptations that allow for the global invasion and expansion of this pest.
