Whole-genome resequencing of 289 Sogatella furcifera individuals uncovers minimal genetic differentiation among populations.
Analysis identified 560 regions and 229 genes as potential targets of selective sweeps affecting adaptive mechanisms.
Demographic patterns suggest a slight population size reduction during the Last Glacial Maximum, influencing current diversity.
Findings indicate adaptive strategies linked to flight endurance and energy efficiency amidst environmental challenges.
