This project focuses on developing species-specific insecticides using peptides designed to target insect neurotransmitter receptors. The goal is to create effective pest control solutions that do not harm beneficial organisms, addressing the urgent need for safer agricultural practices.
Pest control is a central component of agriculture.
However, insecticides and agriculture can have an impact on ecosystems.
Regulations have been taken in Europe to ban some insecticides, based on the possible threat they pose to pollinators.
There is an urgent, unmet need for species-specific insecticides that are safe for non-target organisms.
In the proposed proof-of-concept project, we aim at demonstrating that peptides specifically designed against neurotransmitter receptors can be potent a…
