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. 606 $aInsect pests$xControl 606 $aInsecticides 615 0$aInsect pests$xControl. 615 0$aInsecticides. 676 $a632.7 676 $a632/.7 701 $aIshaaya$b I$0286955 701 $aPalli$b Subba Reddy$01758196 701 $aHorowitz$b A.
