RNAissance Ag LLC is an ag biotechnology startup creating RNAi-based insecticides for crop protection.
The company was formed following the successful completion of a project, funded by TechAccel and the Danforth Center, to demonstrate a sprayable technology to apply RNA interference (or RNAi) technology as a biopesticide targeting insects.
RNAissance Ag holds the exclusive license to this proprietary RNAi technology. The company will focus on developing a sprayable bio pesticide effective for insect pests that previously were considered resistant to RNAi.
