  • Publication number: 20210139902
    Abstract: Provided are a RNAi target gene that is lethal to aphids and the use thereof. Specifically, provided are six gene fragments resulting in the death of aphid nymphs and/or death thereof in the adult stage based on RNA interference technology. The death of the aphids can be caused by spraying a dsRNA-containing composition onto plants to feed aphids or directly spraying same onto the skin of the aphids.
