Assessing the Functionality of RNA Interference (RNAi) in the Phloem-feeding Maize pest <i>Dalbulus maidis</i>

2021-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Dalbulus maidis [(DeLong & Wolcott), corn leafhopper], a phloem-feeding insect, is the most efficient vector of maize stunting pathogens ( Spiroplasma kunkelii , Maize bushy stunt phytoplasma, and Maize rayado fino virus) in the Americas. Studies involving gene editing in insects are rapidly providing information that can potentially be used for insect vector and plant disease control. RNA interference (RNAi), a...
