Abstract

An isolated polynucleotide includes: (a) a polynucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1; or (b) a polynucleotide sequence comprising at least 15 or 17 or 19 or 21 contiguous nucleotides of SEQ ID NO: 1, wherein the ingestion, by Coleoptera insect pests, of a double-stranded RNA comprising at least one strand complementary to the polynucleotide sequence inhibits the growth of the Coleoptera insect pests; or (c) any one of the polynucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 3 to SEQ ID NO: 6; or (d) a polynucleotide sequence hybridized with the polynucleotide sequence defined in (a), (b) or (c) mentioned above under stringent conditions. Multiple target sequences of the target gene c46312 control the Coleoptera insect pest Monolepta hieroglyphica.
