<i>In Silico</i> Analysis of Potential Off-Target Effects of a Next-Generation dsRNA Acaricide for Varroa Mites (<i>Varroa destructor</i>) and Lack of Effect on a Bee-Associated Arthropod

<i>In Silico</i> Analysis of Potential Off-Target Effects of a Next-Generation dsRNA Acaricide for Varroa Mites (<i>Varroa destructor</i>) and Lack of Effect on a Bee-Associated Arthropod

Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) biopesticides offer the potential for highly targeted pest control with minimal off-target impacts. Varroa mites (<i>Varroa destructor</i>) are an important pest of honey bees (<i>Apis mellifera</i>) that are primarily managed by synthetic pesticid...
