RNAi creates challenges to the formulator
RNA
interference (RNAi) with genes in target organisms is rapidly gaining
interest from the academia. The “proof of principle” of RNAi has been
demonstrated quite often under conditions far from the agricultural
practice. Preparing a stable formulation of the RNA required for both
protection of the RNA and to facilitate its uptake into host plants and
target organisms are challenges to the formulator. Adjuvants & Formulations provides insight into what is ongoing.

Submicronization of penthiopyrad particles improves performance
Japanese
researchers submicronized penthiopyrad particles to enhance the number
of fungicide particles in the spray solution and thus the probability of
contact with a plant pathogen. Adjuvants & Formulations briefly summarized this work.
More news in this issue:
- Antifungal packaging systems for citrus fruits
- Smart delivery of fludioxonil for targeted control of banana wilt disease
- Polyethylene glycol 400 improved efficacy of Beauveria bassiana
