Identification and characterization of a dsRNA-degrading nuclease CmdsRNase2 influencing RNAi efficiency in the rice leaffolder Cnaphalocrocis medinalis

Abstract The rice leaffolder Cnaphalocrocis medinalis is one of the most important pests of rice. Double-stranded RNA-degrading enzyme (dsRNase) is one of key factors affecting the stability of dsRNA in insects, thus restricting the application of RNA interference (RNAi) technology in pest control....
