Disclosed are double stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecules that are toxic to coleopteran and/or hemipteran insect pests. In particular, interfering RNA molecules capable of interfering with pest insect target genes and that are toxic to the target insect pest are provided. Further, methods of making and using the interfering RNA, for example in transgenic plants or as the active ingredient in an insecticidal composition, to confer protection from insect damage are disclosed.

An object of the present invention is to provide an F1 hybrid or a portion thereof, and use of the F1 hybrid or a portion thereof. The F1 hybrid of the present invention is an F1 hybrid between Nicotiana umbratica and Nicotiana kawakamii.

The present subject matter provides a pesticidal mixture comprising: (i) an anthranilamide compound of formula (I); (ii) fluensulfone; optionally (iii) a strobilurin fungicide; and further optionally (iv) a neonicotinoid insecticide.
