Pesticides are widely used chemical compounds in agriculture to destroy insects, pests and
weeds. In modern era, they form an indispensable part of agricultural and health practices …

Tribolium castaneum has a long history as a model species in many distinct subject areas,
but improved connections among the genetics, genomics, behavioral, ecological, and pest …

Sustainable agriculture relies on practices and technologies that combine effectiveness with
a minimal environmental footprint. RNA interference (RNAi), a eukaryotic process in which …

RNA interference (RNAi) is a biological process in which small RNA (sRNA) molecules
sequence-specifically silence gene expression at the transcriptional or post-transcriptional …

RNA interference is a phenomenon in which the introduction of double‐stranded RNA
(dsRNA) into cells triggers the degradation of the complementary messenger RNA in a …

The insect pests are big threat in meeting the food demands for future generation. The
present pest control strategies, including the existing transgenic approaches show certain …

RNA interference (RNAi) based methods are being developed for pest management. A few
products for control of coleopteran pests are expected to be commercialized soon. However …

Low RNA interference (RNAi) efficiency in many insect pests has significantly prevented its
