Recent Advances in Engineered Nanoparticles for RNAi-Mediated Crop Protection Against Insect Pests
Since the discovery of RNA interference (RNAi) in the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans in 1998 by Fire and Mello et al., strides have been made in exploiting RNAi for therapeutic applications and more recently for highly selective insect pest control. Although triggering mRNA degradation in inse...
