Silencing of genes through RNA interference (RNAi) in insects has gained momentum
during the past few years. RNAi has been used to cause insect mortality, inhibit insect …

RNA interference (RNAi) induced through double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) has been used
widely to study gene function in insects. In this paper we demonstrate the efficacy of RNAi in …

RNA interference (RNAi) has been proved to be a viable method for agricultural pest control.
Due to the limited uptake of dsRNA in hemiptera insects, this study used nanocarrier SPc …

We have previously reported that a cytochrome P450, CYP6BG1, from Plutella xylostella
was found to be overexpressed in 4th instars of a permethrin resistant strain and inducible in …

BACKGROUND Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, is the most important
economic pest of citrus because it transmits Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (C Las), the …

Phloem and plant sap feeding insects invade the integrity of crops and fruits to retrieve
nutrients, in the process damaging food crops. Hemipteran insects account for a number of …

BACKGROUND Targeting insect‐specific genes through post‐transcriptional gene silencing
with RNA interference (RNAi) is a new strategy for insect pest management. However …

Low RNA interference (RNAi) efficiency in many insect pests has significantly prevented its
widespread application for insect pest management. This article provides a comprehensive …

To identify genes that kill Tetranychus urticae when knocked down via RNA interference
(RNAi), several lethal genes were screened by the systemic delivery of dsRNA via leaf disc …

RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful means to study functional genomics in insects. The
delivery of dsRNA is a challenging step in the development of RNAi assay. Here, we …
