Persistent Parental RNAi in the Beetle Tribolium castaneum Involves Maternal Transmission of Long Double‐Stranded RNA

Abstract Parental RNA interference (pRNAi) is a powerful and widely used method for gene‐specific knockdown. Yet in insects its efficacy varies between species, and how the systemic response is transmitted from mother to offspring remains elusive. Using the beetle Tribolium castaneum, an RT‐qPCR str...
