PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a nucleic acid comprising a base sequence of a noxious animal gene that can be targeted by RNA interference (RNAi) agricultural chemicals, and a double-stranded RNA that suppresses the expression of the gene, and also to provide a noxious animal control agent and a method for controlling noxious animals, which utilize the double-stranded RNA.SOLUTION: According to the present invention, a nucleic acid consists of a base sequence consisting of a specific sequence or a base sequence having 90% or more identity with the base sequence. A double-stranded RNA comprises a RNAi effect on a gene that consists of the nucleic acid. A noxious animal control agent comprises the double-stranded RNA as an active ingredient. A method for controlling noxious animals comprises the step of applying the double-stranded RNA.SELECTED DRAWING: NoneCOPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】RNA干渉(RNAi)農薬の標的とできる有害動物の遺伝子の塩基配列を含む核酸、及び該遺伝子の発現を抑制する二本鎖RNAの提供。当該二本鎖RNAを利用した有害動物防除剤及び有害動物の防除方法の提供。【解決手段】特定な配列からなる塩基配列、又は当該塩基配列と90%以上の同一性を有する塩基配列からなる核酸、該核酸からなる遺伝子に対してRNAi効果を有する二本鎖RNA、該二本鎖RNAを有効成分として含む有害動物防除剤、及び該二本鎖RNAを施用する工程を備えた、有害動物の防除方法。【選択図】なし
