Introduction Many members of the Ophiostomatales are of economic importance as they are bark-beetle associates and causative agents for blue stain on timber and in some instances contribute towards tree mortality. The taxonomy of these fungi has been challenging due to the convergent evolution of many traits associated with insect dispersal and a l...

... and intergenic sequences accounted for most of the genome size (> 80%), with 58% intron content in L. aureum and 55% intron content in L. sp. WIN(M)1376 and G. fruticeta ( Figures 6A-C). A complex intron can be recognized in the cox1 gene at position 212 (based on Gr I intron naming nomenclature) in L. sp. ...

The eggplant fruit and shoot borer (EFSB) (Leucinodes orbonalis Guenée) is a devastating lepidopteran pest of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) in the Philippines. Management of an insect pest like the EFSB requires an understanding of its biology, evolution, and adaptations. Genomic resources provide a starting point for understanding EFSB biology,...
