Abstract

The present invention relates to the control of infestation of pests by inhibiting or reducing the expression of genes of the family of chitin synthase. The invention further provides methods and compositions for controlling pests by feeding them with one or more double-stranded RNA molecules provides by the present invention. The invention further describes a method of obtaining transgenic plants that express double-stranded RNA molecules. The present invention is preferably used for cotton-plants.
