Environmental endocrine disruptors constitute a category of exogenous compounds that interfere with the system's functions in organisms or cells. As class particularly representative endocrine-disrupting chemicals, accumulation per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances potentially leads to adverse health effects, including hormonal disruptions, developmental issues, cancer. However, classification these is intricate, data on their potential risks scattered.

Abstract BACKGROUND Aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) are notorious sap‐sucking insects that rampantly threaten agricultural production worldwide. Current management against aphids in the field heavily relies on chemical pesticides, which makes economical and eco‐friendly methods urgently needed. Spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS) offers a powerful precise approach to pest management. However, high costs instability of double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) regulators applied for downstream interference (RNAi) still limit this strategy. It remains uncertain if RNAi SIGS could extend small (sRNA), especially miRNA. RESULTS We chose two sRNA sequences, miR‐9b miR‐VgR, whose corresponding targets ABCG4 VgR both essential aphid growth development. The efficacy these sequences was initially verified by chemically synthetic single‐stranded (syn‐ssRNA). Through spray treatment, we observed significantly decreased survival number increased abnormality rate green peach fed host under laboratory conditions. Based our previous study, generated transgenic plants expressing artificial (amiR‐9b) miR‐VgR (amiR‐VgR). Remarkably, plant‐derived amiRNA exerted potent long‐lasting inhibitory with merely one percent concentration synthetics. Notably, simultaneous application amiR‐9b amiR‐VgR exhibited superior efficacy. CONCLUSION explored potential use sRNA‐based biopesticide through while investigating dosage requirements. To optimize strategy, utilization proposed. results suggested attributed stability durability, deploying is promising solution application. © 2024 Society Chemical Industry.
