Dataset for: The redlegged earth mite draft genome provides new insights into pesticide resistance evolution and demography in its invasive Australian range

Data and analyses for Thia et al. "The redlegged earth mite draft genome provides new insights into pesticide resistance evolution and demography in its invasive Australian range" submitted to Journal of Evolutionary Biology. This repository comprises data and scripts used to replicate the analyses in this paper. The goals of this study were to: (1) assemble a draft reference genome for Halotydeus destructor; (2) perform a comparative analysis of acetylcholinesterase genes among different agricultural arthropod pests; (3) characterise the population genetic patterns among Australian H. destructor populations; and (4) perform demographic modelling to understand the evolutionary relationships between eastern and western populations of H. destructor in Australia.
