  • The Japanese sawyer beetle, Monochamus alternatus, is a pest in pine forests and spreads the pine wood nematode, which leads to pine wilt disease.
  • Researchers created a high-quality genome for this beetle using advanced sequencing technologies, achieving a genome size of 767.12 Mb with 10 pseudo-chromosomes.
  • The genome analysis revealed 16,284 protein-coding genes, offering a valuable resource for studying the biology and ecology of the beetle and its role in transmitting the nematode.
