fireryone Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 http://www.japanprobe.com/?p=11538 link has pics While ladybird beetles have been employed as eco-friendly pest killers both at home and abroad, how to keep them in field crops without flying away has been a major challenge. The team led by Teruyuki Niimi, associate professor at Nagoya University?s Graduate School of Bioagricultural Sciences, identified a master gene for wing development, and used the RNA interference technique to disrupt the gene?s function, according to the journal. Niimi said the new technique is unlikely to affect the ecosystem as it differs from genetic modification and that the ladybirds? offspring will be born with wings just like normal ones fireryone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ishan_rulz Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 geez. They shouldn't interfere with things of nature. At least not other species :S I don't mind if they kill all the stupid mosquitoes and hous flies though! Simplicity is hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icedrake Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Bug cruelty. I agree with Ishan about the house flies and mosquitoes killing. I wouldn't mind that either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
