Functional Analysis of E93 Reveals Its Potential as a Target for Controlling Leptinotarsa decemlineata and Chilo suppressalis.

Journal of agricultural and food chemistry | 2026-May-12

This study identifies the transcription factor E93 as a critical developmental regulator in the Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata), a major potato pest. The research demonstrates that RNAi-mediated knockdown of E93, including through treated potato plants, disrupts beetle development and reproduction, offering a potential target for genetic-based pest management.
