2017 journal article

Contemporary evolution of a Lepidopteran species, Heliothis virescens, in response to modern agricultural practices

MOLECULAR ECOLOGY, 27(1), 167–181.

By: M. Fritz  n, A. DeYonke n, A. Papanicolaou *, S. Micinski*, J. Westbrook * & F. Gould n 

author keywords: Bacillus thuringiensis; cotton; Heliothis virescens; selective sweep; tobacco budworm
MeSH headings : Agriculture; Alleles; Animals; Biological Evolution; Genetic Association Studies; Genetic Loci; Genetic Markers; Genetic Variation; Genome, Insect; Haplotypes / genetics; Insecticide Resistance / genetics; Moths / drug effects; Moths / genetics; Moths / physiology; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide / genetics; Pyrethrins / toxicity; Selection, Genetic; Sequence Analysis, DNA
TL;DR: This study produced an H. virescens genome assembly and used this in concert with a ddRAD-seq enabled genome scan to identify loci with significant allele frequency changes over the 15 year period, and quantified the selection strength required to elicit observed allele frequencyChanges at each locus.
