Knockdown of Genes Involved in Transcription and Splicing Reveals Novel RNAi Targets for Pest Control

Knockdown of Genes Involved in Transcription and Splicing Reveals Novel RNAi Targets for Pest Control

RNA interference (RNAi) is a promising next generation technology for the development of species-specific pest management. The key to successful RNAi based-plant protection is dependent in part on data-driven target gene selection, a challenging task due to the absence of laboratory strains and the...
