Abstract

This data article is related to the research article entitled "The RING for gypsy moth control: topical application of fragment of its nuclear polyhedrosis virus anti-apoptosis gene as insecticide" [1]. This article reports on significantly higher survival of gypsy moth Lymantria dispar male individuals in response to topical application of single-stranded DNA, based on RING (really interesting new gene) domain fragment of LdMNPV (L. dispar multicapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus) IAP-3 (inhibitor of apoptosis) gene and acted as DNA insecticide.

Keywords: DNA insecticides; Gypsy moth Lymantria dispar; Insecticide resistance; Lymantria dispar multicapsid nuclear polyhedrosis virus; Pest management; RING (really interesting new gene); Viral IAP genes.
