The soybean pod borer, Leguminivora glycinivorella (Matsumura), is an important tortricid pest species widely distributed in most parts of China and its adjacent regions. Here, we analyzed the genetic diversity and population differentiation of L. glycinivorella using diverse genetic information including the standard cox1 barcode sequences, mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes), and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from genotyping-by-sequencing. Based on a comprehensive sampling (including adults or larvae of L. glycinivorella newly collected at 22 of the total 30 localities examined) that covers most of the known distribution range of this pest, analyses of 543 cox1 barcode sequences and 60 mitogenomes revealed that the traditionally recognized and widely distributed L. glycinivorella contains two sympatric and widely distributed genetic lineages (A and B) that were estimated to have diverged similar to 1.14 million years ago during the middle Pleistocene. Moreover, low but statistically significant correlations were recognized between genetic differentiation and geographic or environmental distances, indicating the existence of local adaptation to some extent. Based on SNPs, phylogenetic inference, principal component analysis, fixation index, and admixture analysis all confirm the two divergent sympatric lineages. Compared with the stable demographic history of Lineage B, the expansion of Lineage A had possibly made the secondary contact of the two lineages probable, and this process may be driven by the climate fluctuation during the late Pleistocene as revealed by ecological niche modeling.
