Positive selection alone is sufficient for whole genome differentiation at the early stage of speciation process in the fall armyworm

Abstract Background The process of speciation involves differentiation of whole genome sequences between a pair of diverging taxa. In the absence of a geographic barrier and in the presence of gene flow, genomic differentiation may occur when the homogenizing effect of recombination is overcome acro...
