Journal ArticleDOI
Selection of housekeeping genes and demonstration of RNAi in cotton leafhopper, Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida)
TL;DR: Based on the results of three algorithms, RP13 in adults, Tubulin (Tub) in late nymphs, 28S in early nymph and UbiCF under starvation stress were identified as the most stable genes and methods for feeding double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) incorporated in the diet were developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
RNA sequencing, selection of reference genes and demonstration of feeding RNAi in Thrips tabaci (Lind.) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)
Satnam Singh,Mridula Gupta,Suneet Pandher,Gurmeet Kaur,Neha Goel,Pankaj Rathore,Subba Reddy Palli +6 more
TL;DR: Interestingly, simultaneous feeding of dsRNAs targeting SNF7 or AQP and one of the RNAi pathway genes resulted in a significant reduction in RNAi of target genes, suggesting the existence of robust RNAi machinery in T. tabaci.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using de novo transcriptome assembly and analysis to study RNAi in Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae)
TL;DR: RNAi in P. solenopsis was demonstrated through knockdown of IAP (Inhibitor of Apoptosis), AQP (Aquaporin), CAL (Calcitonin), VATPase (V-type proton ATPase subunit F 1), bursicon, chitin synthase, SNF7 and α-amylase by injecting sequence specific dsRNA of respective genes in adult female.
Journal Article
Performance of Bt cotton hybrids under different geometrical arrangements.
Journal Article
Effect of transplanting and seedling age on growth, yield attributes and seed cotton yield of Bt cotton (Gossypium hirsutum)
TL;DR: The possibility of transplanting cotton to raise a profitable crop under compelling circumstances as a potentially exploitable technology was revealed and FYM: Soil (1:1) was found superior than cocopeat for raising seedling.
