Knockdown of Sec1/Munc18 ( <scp>SM</scp> ) family genes impairs feeding and molting in <scp> <i>Locusta migratoria</i> </scp>
In short, our results showed that knockdown of LmRop and LmSly1 led to abnormalities in digestion and molting of locusts. Therefore, these two SM genes have promise as key targets for RNA interference-based control of L. migratoria. © 2025 Society of Chemical Industry.
