Control of two sucking insect pests, a whitefly ( <scp> <i>Bemisia tabaci</i> </scp> ) and a thrips ( <scp> <i>Frankliniella occidentalis</i> </scp> ), infesting hot peppers by spraying <scp>LDH</scp> ‐formulated <scp>dsRNA</scp>
These results suggest that LDH formulation is useful for dsRNA delivery against the two sucking insects. The LDH-dsRNA specific to vATPase-B of B. tabaci was effective to control both whitefly and thrips infesting hot peppers. © 2025 The Author(s).
