A study has shed light on the genetic makeup of the tea gray geometrid, Ectropis grisescens. Through the re-sequencing of 43 genomes, scientists have mapped out the pest’s population structure and its remarkable adaptation to tea crops, offering new avenues for managing this agricultural adversary.
