Abstract

the H. armigera Indian populations (HM629436, HM629437, HM629438, HM629439, HM629440 and HM629441) showed a maximum of 88.0% nucleotide similarity with Acceession number X97615 and the H. armigera Indian populations (HM629442 and HM629443) showed 98.0% similarity. similarly the H. armigera Indian populations (HM629436, HM629438, HM629439, HM629440) showed 88.0% nucleotide similarity with Acceession number X97614. the Accession numbers HM629437 and HM629441 showed 89.0% and HM629442, HM629443 showed 99.0% nucleotide similarity with X97614 respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that all Indian populations formed one distinct group except HM629443 and HM629442 is more closely related with X97614.
