The genetic characterization of fall armyworm populations in Ecuador and its implications to migration and pest management in the northern regions of South America.
The fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) is a moth pest native to the Western Hemisphere that has recently become a global problem, invading Africa, Asia, and Australia. The species has a broad host range, long-distance migration capability, and a propensity for the generation of pesticide resistan...
