Insights into the role of non-coding RNAs in the development of insecticide resistance in insects [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
Pest control heavily relies on chemical pesticides has been going on for decades. However, the indiscriminate use of chemical pesticides often results in the development of resistance in pests. Almost all pests have developed some degree of resistance to
