RNAi efficiency, systemic properties and novel delivery methods for pest insect control: what we know so far.

In recent years, the research on the potential of using RNA interference (RNAi) to suppress crop pests has made an outstanding growth. However, given the variability of RNAi efficiency that is observed in many insects, the development of novel approaches towards insect pest management using RNAi req...
