title: [Double stranded RNA (RNA interference RNAi) in different creatures].
abstract: Double stranded RNA could degrade mRNA of target gene. It is a useful way for studying gene function. It is used widely in different creatures,such as Arabidopsis thaliana, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, Zebrafish, Mouse. This review is mainly related to the application of dsRNA in recent years.
