Root uptake, translocation and persistence of EAB-specific dsRNA in ash seedlings

Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) is a sequence-specific gene silencing mechanism triggered by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). Exploiting the RNAi mechanism to silence essential genes in insects has emerged as a promising new pest control strategy, and RNAi-based products are being developed for plant p...
