The interactions between herbivorous insects and plants involve various processes,including gene expression,metabolomic changes,and plant hormone crosstalk. As a key regulatory factor be-tween herbivorous insects and plants,small RNA (sRNA) plays a crucial role in gene transcription or post-transcription by controlling chromosome splicing,translation,inhibiting messenger RNA (mRNA) and guiding target transcript degradation. Therefore,RNA-mediated gene regulation is essential for un-derstanding the interaction between herbivorous insects and plants. The research on signaling molecules of exogenous sRNA between herbivorous insects and plant cells,as well as within extracellular and bio-logical systems,is gaining popularity. Additionally,studies on sRNA-based biological control are devel-oping vigorously. This review summarized the migration mode of sRNA between herbivorous insects and plants,the influence of sRNA on their growth and development,and explored the influence of sRNA on the plant-parasite-herbivorous insect system. In addition,the biotechnology prospects of sRNA in agricultural pest control were also outlined,with the aim of developing green and efficient bio-logical control agents,reducing pesticide use and creating higher economic and environmental values.
