Zusammenfassung:A composition-of-matter for mosquito control is provided. The composition comprises a cell which comprises an exogenous naked dsRNA which specifically down- regulates expression of a gene being endogenous to a mosquito or which specifically down-regulated expression of a gene being endogenous to a mosquito pathogen. Further provided is a composition-of-matter for mosquito control, comprising a cell comprising a nucleic acid larvicide. Also provided are methods of producing and using the compositions. Se proporciona una composición de material para el control de mosquitos. La composición comprende una célula que comprende un ARNds desnudo exógeno que específicamente regula negativamente la expresión de un gen que es endógeno de un mosquito o que específicamente regula negativamente la expresión de un gen que es endógeno de un patógeno de un mosquito. Adicionalmente se proporciona una composición de material para el control de mosquitos, que comprende una célula que comprende un ácido nucleico larvicida. También se proporcionan procedimientos para producir y utilizar las composiciones.
