Fluorescent Nanoparticle-RNAi-Mediated Silencing of Sterol Carrier Protein-2 Gene Expression Suppresses the Growth, Development, and Reproduction of <i>Helicoverpa armigera</i>

Fluorescent Nanoparticle-RNAi-Mediated Silencing of Sterol Carrier Protein-2 Gene Expression Suppresses the Growth, Development, and Reproduction of <i>Helicoverpa armigera</i>

<i>Helicoverpa armigera</i> is a polyphagous destructive lepidopteran pest with strong <i>Bacillus thuringiensis</i> (Bt) resistance. Cholesterol, a vital component for insect growth, can only be obtained from food, and its transfer and metabolism are regulated by sterol carr...
