dsRNA-Mediated Pest Management of <i>Tuta absoluta</i> Is Compatible with Its Biological Control Agent <i>Nesidiocoris tenuis</i>

dsRNA-Mediated Pest Management of <i>Tuta absoluta</i> Is Compatible with Its Biological Control Agent <i>Nesidiocoris tenuis</i>

RNAi-mediated insect pest management has recently shown promising results against the most serious pest of tomato, the tomato leafminer, <i>Tuta absoluta</i>. This study aimed to investigate whether dsRNA (ds<i>Ta</i>-<i>αCOP</i>) designed to target the <i>T...
