  • Publication number: 20220049256
    Abstract: Disclosed are double stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecules that are toxic to insect pests. In particular, interfering RNA molecules capable of modulating expression of a pest insect target gene and that are toxic to the insect pest are provided. Further, methods of making and using the interfering RNA, for example as the active ingredient in an insecticidal composition or in a transgenic plant, to confer protection from insect damage are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20150004148
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions containing a combination of a first active component comprising one or more sulfated polysaccharides and/or glycosaminoglycans and a second active component comprising one or more RNAi-inducing molecules, and methods for using these compositions to enhance double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-mediated gene silencing in pest or pathogen species. The invention further relates to methods for controlling pests or pathogens, methods for preventing pest infestations or pathogen infections and methods for knocking down gene expression in pests or pathogens using the compositions and methods of the invention.
