Abstract We highlight the recent 5 years of research that contributed to our understanding mechanisms RNA interference (RNAi) in insects. Since its first discovery, RNAi has enormously as a reverse genetic tool for functional genomic studies. is also being used therapeutics, well agricultural crop and livestock production protection. Yet, wider application RNAi, improvement potency delivery technologies needed. A mechanistic every step from cellular uptake trigger molecules targeted mRNA degradation, key developing an efficient strategy improve technology. Insects provide excellent model studying mechanism due species‐specific variations efficiency. This allows us perform comparative studies insect species with different sensitivity. Understanding insects can lead development better strategies manage agriculturally medically important
