  • METHOD FOR INDUCING RNA SILENCING
    Publication number: 20210024931
    Abstract: A method for efficiently inducing RNA silencing in a target organism is provided. RNA silencing is induced in a target organism by allowing the target organism to ingest cells of a microorganism, wherein the microorganism is able to produce RNA that induces RNA silencing after treating the cells with an organic solvent.

  • Insect pest control method
    Patent number: 9051569
    Abstract: The present invention is intended to provide means of pest control which achieve marked pest control effect. The pest control effect is achieved by the incorporation of an inhibitor (IAP inhibitor) against inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) into the body of the target pest. The expression of the IAP is preferably inhibited by RNAi.

  • Biopesticide comprising insect belonging to family coccinellidae
    Publication number: 20100169991
    Abstract: Disclosed is a biopesticide utilizing an insect belonging to the family Coccinelidae, which has excellent durability of effect, which can control a insect pest effectively, and which has little influence on an ecosystem. An insect belonging to the family Coccinelidae having abnormality in the wing formation can be produced by suppressing the expression of a vestigial gene and/or a scalloped gene in the insect.
