METHOD FOR CONTROLLING OF BROWN SOFT SCALE COCCUS HESPERIDUM L.

摘要

FIELD: biotechnology.;SUBSTANCE: method for controlling the brown soft scale Coccus hesperidum is proposed. An insecticide based on an aqueous solution of a double-stranded DNA fragment of the 28S ribosomal RNA gene of the target insect-pest at a concentration of 100 ng/mcl is applied to the surface of the host-plant leaves in the amount of at least 1 mg of DNA per 1 m² of leaves. ;EFFECT: invention provides an increase in the mortality of the sucking insect of the brown soft scale Coccus hesperidum.;1 cl, 1 tbl, 1 ex
