The invention belongs to the field of biological
gene engineering. A chilo venosatus walker
ecdysis regulation
transcription factor CsHR3 contains sequences shown by SEQ ID NO.1 and SEQ ID NO.2. The
cloning method provided by the invention comprises the following steps of: extracting
total RNA (ribonucleic acid) from chilo venosatus walker larvas in prepupal period, and carrying out reverse transcription to synthesize cDNA; designing a
degenerate primer according to conserved sequences of different lepidopterous
insect ecdysis regulation transcription factors, carrying out PCR (
polymerase chain reaction) amplification on the intermediate segment of the chilo venosatus walker CsHR3
gene, designing a specific primer by adopting 3'-RACE (rapid-amplification of cDNA ends) technology, and then obtaining the 1266bp segment of the CsHR3
gene successfully. According to the invention, dsRNA is expressed in RNaseIII defective
escherichia coli HT 115 by adopting a bacterium mediate RNAi technology to obtain dsRNA with
biological activity, and the chilo venosatus walker
ecdysis regulation
transcription factor CsHR3 gene is silenced by feeding the chilo venosatus walker larvas, thus chilo venosatus walker can not complete ecdysis or
normal growth and development process of the chilo venosatus walker is destroyed and biological prevention and control on the chilo venosatus walker is realized; or the chilo venosatus walker ecdysis regulation
transcription factor is converted into a
crop, and the
crop with
insect resistance is obtained.
