On March 16, 2021, Dr. Takeshi Suzuki (Associate Professor, Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology) gave a lecture on “RNAi-based control of spider mites”. In the lecture, he showed his data regarding application of RNA interference (RNAi) as a pest control and efficient uptake of chemical substances using plant-parasitic spider mites (sucking-type). A total of 14 including PhD students, postdoctors, and researchers attended the online lecture. We had active discussions and spent a fruitful time during the lecture.
