One of such approaches is based on disrupting the activity of biochemical sites acting on transcription factors such as the basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) family, anti juvenile hormone (AJH) agents that target JH biosynthetic enzymes, G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) and bursicon as targets for insect control. Another one is the biotechnology or the genetic approach such as gene silencing (RNA interference) and Bt-crops. Other sections of the book are devoted to the plant’s natural products, optical manipulation and the use of nanotechnology for improving insect control methods.EntomologyAgricultureProteins Animal geneticsMedical geneticsNanoscale scienceNanoscienceNanostructuresEntomologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25090Agriculturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006Protein-Ligand Interactionshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14060Animal Genetics and Genomicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L32030Gene Functionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B12030Nanoscale Science and Technologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25140Entomology.Agriculture.Proteins .Animal genetics.Medical genetics.Nanoscale science.Nanoscience.Nanostructures.Entomology.Agriculture.Protein-Ligand Interactions.Animal Genetics and Genomics.Gene Function.Nanoscale Science and Technology.632.7632/.7Ishaaya Isaacedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPalli Subba Reddyedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHorowitz A.
