Chromosome-level genome assembly and transcriptomes of the leaf insect <i>Cryptophyllium westwoodii</i> provide insights into the evolution of leaf-like masquerade
This study not only provides the first chromosome-level reference genome of leaf insects in Phylliidae, but also offers new insights into the leaf-like masquerade in leaf insects.
