double stranded rna molecule, grouping of double stranded rna molecules, transgenic plant, and methods for controlling a parasitic nematode's infection of a plant and for manufacturing a transgenic plant

摘要

DOUBLE FILM RNA Molecule, GROUP DOUBLE FILM RNA Molecules, TRANSGENIC PLANT, AND METHODS TO CONTROL A PLANT INFECTION BY A PARASITIC NEMATOID AND TO MANUFACTURE A TRANSGENIC PLANT. The present invention relates to double stranded RNA compositions and transgenic plants capable of inhibiting the expression of essential genes in parasitic nematodes and methods associated therewith. Specifically, the invention relates to the use of RNA interference to inhibit expression of a target essential parasitic nematode gene, which is a pas-5 parasitic nematode gene, and concerns the generation of plants that have increased resistance to parasitic nematodes.
