Gene silencing by feeding double-stranded (dsRNA) holds promise as a novel pest
management strategy. Nonetheless, degradation of dsRNA in the environment and within …

Silencing genes in insects by introducing double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) in the diet holds
promise as a new pest management method. It has been demonstrated that nanoparticles …

Abstract Development of new and specific insect pest management methods is critical for
overcoming pesticide resistance and collateral off-target killings. Gene silencing by feeding …

Simple Summary This study focuses on the desert locust, a critical insect pest species for
agriculture. We aimed at investigating how to induce RNA interference by feeding in this …

Branched Amphiphilic Peptides Capsules (BAPCs™) are a novel class of nano‐carriers
constituted from the spontaneous co‐assembly of two unique, engineered peptide …

RNA interference (RNAi) has become an essential technique in functional analysis of insect
genes and pest management. However, insensitivity to RNAi is the main obstacle that limits …

BACKGROUND In the past years, the concept of RNAi application for insect pest control has
been proposed, considering the disruption of vital genes. However, the efficiency of RNAi is …

RNA interference (RNAi) has been widely applied for uncovering the biological functions of
numerous genes, and has been envisaged as a pest control tool operating by disruption of …
