Method of alleviating infestation of plant pest, plant comprising a DNA sequence of the pest and the use of a vector in which the sequences of the pest are present

摘要

In the present invention, there is disclosed a method of alleviating infestation of plant pests, which method comprises: a) identifying a DNA sequence from said pest which is critical for its survival, growth and proliferation; b) cloning said sequence from step a) or a fragment thereof in a suitable vector in an orientation relative to promoter (s) such that said promoter (s) is (are) capable of initiating transcription of said DNA sequence to double stranded
