Eco-friendly insect control in crop production

Steiner-Rebrova, Eva M LU orcid and Halberg, Kenneth V (2025) In Nature Reviews Bioengineering
Abstract
Insect pest control, which is essential for food and crop production, typically relies on chemical insecticides. At Yngvi Bio, we repurpose bacterial contractile injection systems as biodegradable insecticides, offering ecological safety, target specificity and a scalable path to market.
