ABSTRACT
Effective control of Leptinotarsa decemlineata remains an urgent problem for the agriculture worldwide. Minimization of use of non-selective neonicotinoid insecticides, such as thiomethoxam, is an actual vector of development of potato cultivation. In this rapid communication, we show the prospect of topical using of short unmodified antisense fragment of L. decemlineata CYP6B gene as DNA insecticide. Investigated parameters, namely, number of larvae per plant, aboveground biomass, yield and number of potatoes produced per plant indicate a perspective of this post-genomic approach as a safe and effective method of L. decemlineata control
