Analysis of strain distribution, migratory potential, and invasion history of fall armyworm populations in northern sub-Saharan Africa
Fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J.E. Smith) is a noctuid moth pest endemic throughout the Western Hemisphere that has recently become widespread in sub-Saharan Africa. There is a strong expectation of significant damage to African maize crop yield and a high likelihood of further dispersal, put...
