UTR-specific knockdown of Distal-less and Sp8 leads to new phenotypic variants in the flour beetle Tribolium.

Development genes and evolution - 1 Jul 2018

Thümecke Susanne, Schröder Reinhard

Abstract excerpt

RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated knockdown serves as an effective technique for the functional analysis of developmental genes that is well established in many organisms. In the beetle Tribolium castaneum, double-stranded RNA is applied by simple injection and distributes systemically within the tissue. Thus, systematic testing for RNAi specificity and efficiency is easily possible in this organism. Generally,...
