CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Disruption of the <i>lef8</i> and <i>lef9</i> to Inhibit Nucleopolyhedrovirus Replication in Silkworms

<i>Bombyx mori</i> nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is a pathogen that causes severe disease in silkworms. In a previous study, we demonstrated that by using the CRISPR/Cas9 system to disrupt the BmNPV <i>ie-1</i> and <i>me53</i> genes, transgenic silkworms showed res...
