Oral delivery of dsRNA by microbes: Beyond pest control

Oral delivery of dsRNA by microbes: Beyond pest control

RNA interference (RNAi) by oral delivery of dsRNA in insects has great potential as a tool for integrated pest management (IPM), especially with respect to addressing the need to reduce off-target effect and slow down resistance development to chemical insecticides. Employing the natural association...
