Characterizing the mechanism of action of double-stranded RNA activity against western corn rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte).

RNA interference (RNAi) has previously been shown to be effective in western corn rootworm (WCR, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte) larvae via oral delivery of synthetic double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) in an artificial diet bioassay, as well as by ingestion of transgenic corn plant tissues engineered to express dsRNA.Although the RNAi machinery co

YOLOv8-MPEB small target detection algorithm based on UAV images

Target detection in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) aerial images has gained significance within UAV application scenarios.However, UAV aerial images present challenges, including large-scale changes, small target sizes, complex scenes, and variable external factors, resulting in missed or false detections.This study proposes an algorithm for small t
