The striped flea beetle, Phyllotreta striolata, is a globally notorious pest of cruciferous vegetables. In this study, we successfully sequenced the whole genome of the Chinese population of P. striolata. Comparative analysis with the reference genome of the Canadian population enabled a high‐resolution examination of genetic variation, which is ...
