ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns double stranded RNA compositions and transgenic plants capable of inhibiting expression of essential genes in parasitic nematodes, and methods associated therewith. Specifically, the invention relates to the use of RNA interference to inhibit expression of a target essential parasitic nematode gene, which is a parasitic nematode pas-5 gene, and relates to the generation of plants that have increased resistance to parasitic nematodes.
