A transgenic approach to control hemipteran insects by expressing insecticidal genes under phloem-specific promoters
The first generation transgenic crops used strong constitutive promoters for transgene expression.
However, tissue-specific expression is desirable for more precise targeting of transgenes. Moreover,
piercing/sucking ...
RNA Interference based Approach to Down Regulate Osmoregulators of Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci): Potential Technology for the Control of Whitefly
Over the past decade RNA interference (RNAi) technology has emerged as a successful tool not only for functional genomics, but in planta expression of short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that could offer great potential for ...
Study of Secondary Endosymbionts of Whiteflies Collected from Cotton Growing Districts of Punjab, Pakistan
Whitefly is the insect vector for cotton leaf curl disease. Like many arthropods, whitefly possess
different primary and secondary endosymbionts depending on ecological zone and biotype. These
endosymbionts play important ...
