| 20100170000 | Rna constructs - The present invention concerns concatemer and/or stabilized RNA constructs capable of forming dsRNA, optionally comprising a sequence capable of protecting the dsRNA against RNA processing in a host cell. The invention also relates to methods of producing these constructs and to methods for using these constructs. The constructs according to the present invention are particularly useful in plant pest control. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100168102 | Amide Derivatives as Kinase Inhibitors - The present invention relates to new AGC kinase inhibitors, in particular to compounds of Formula (I) or (II) or a stereoisomer tautomer, racemic, metabolite, pro- or predrug, salt, hydrate, or solvate thereof, wherein Ar | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100068172 | Nematode Control - The present invention concerns methods for controlling nematode infestation via dsRNA mediated gene silencing, whereby the intact nematodes are contacted with a double-stranded RNA and whereby the double-stranded RNA is taken up by the intact nematodes. In one particular embodiment, the methods of the invention are used to alleviate plants from nematode pests. Alternatively, the methods are used for treating and/or preventing nematode infestation on a substrate or a subject in need of such treatment and/or prevention. Suitable nematode target genes and fragments thereof, dsRNA constructs, recombinant constructs and compositions are disclosed. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100011654 | RNAI FOR THE CONTROL OF INSECTS AND ARACHNIDS - The present invention describes a new non-compound based approach for insect and/or arachnid control. The present inventors have identified for the first time novel targets for RNAi, which can effectively control insect and/or arachnid pest populations. Accordingly, the invention provides both nucleotide and amino acid sequences for the novel targets. Also provided are RNA constructs including double stranded RNA regions for mediating RNAi in insects, DNA constructs, expression vectors, host cells and compositions for controlling insects and/or arachnids using RNAi. Finally, the invention also provides for the use of the constructs, vectors, host cells and compositions in control of insects and/or arachnids populations and suitable kits for use in an RNAi based method of controlling insect and/or arachnid pests. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20090298787 | Dsrna as Insect Control Agent - The present invention relates to methods for controlling pest infestation using double standard RNA molecules.
