Rice Water Weevil Genetic Structure and Thermal Response Data from Northern China

Transcriptomic and genetic data for the invasive rice water weevil (Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus) from seven populations in Liaoning Province, Northeast China. The dataset includes 38,410 assembled unigenes, 10,175 microsatellite markers, and genotyping results from ten polymorphic markers revealing moderate genetic diversity. Authored by Xueping Shi and last updated in May 2026, it provides a genetic framework for pest management and climate response prediction.

Use Cases

• Analyzing population genetic structure based on microsatellite marker genotyping results
• Investigating thermal stress responses based on differentially expressed gene (DEG) counts under high and low temperatures
• Studying gene flow and genetic differentiation between distinct population clusters identified in the analysis
• Developing molecular markers for pest monitoring based on the validated set of 10,175 SSR markers

Strengths

• Includes 38,410 assembled unigenes providing a substantial transcriptomic resource
• Contains 10,175 developed microsatellite (SSR) markers for genetic analysis
• Genotypes seven distinct populations, enabling comparative population genetics
• Combines genetic structure analysis with transcriptomic data on thermal stress response

Limitations

• Row count and specific column-level documentation are unknown, limiting suitability assessment
• Data is confined to seven populations in Liaoning Province, China, which may limit geographic generalizability
