Table 1.

RNAi genes orally evaluated in western corn rootworm. Larvicidal genes were tested in neonates and the evaluated phenotype was mortality. Larvicidal genes reported by Baum et al. [55] include those with an LC50 ≤ 5.2 ng/cm2, while genes from Knorr et al. [123] include those with ≤ 60% mortality in a nine-day bioassay. Parental and reproductive genes were tested in adults and the phenotype was evaluated in the offspring or adult fecundity, respectively.
