Selection of reference genes for RT-qPCR analysis in Coccinella septempunctata to assess un-intended effects of RNAi transgenic plants
The development of genetically-engineered plants that employ RNA interference (RNAi) to suppress invertebrate pests opens up new avenues for insect control. While this biotechnology shows tremendous promise, the potential for both non-target and off-target impacts, which likely manifest via altered...
