Differential DNA methylation between two wing phenotypes adults of Sogatella furcifera.

Sogatella furcifera is a major rice pest with wing dimorphism. DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification that plays a role in gene regulation and phenotype variation in most organisms. The objective of the current research was to survey the frequencies and variation of cytosine methylation at CCGG sequences in macropterous female adults (MFA) and brachypterous female adults (BFA) of S.
