Evaluation of the effect of transgenic Bt cotton on snails Bradybaena (Acusta) ravida and Bradybaena similaris (Ferussac)

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
The impact of transgenic crops on non-target organisms is a key aspect of environmental safety assessment to transgenic crops. In the present study, we fed two snail species, Bradybaena (Acusta) ravida (B.

Undiversity, inequity, and exclusion in supply chains: The unintended fallout of economic sanctions and consumer boycotts

open access: yesProduction and Operations Management, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Economic sanctions and consumer boycotts are common tools to punish organizations for undesirable behavior and attempt to coerce them to change their actions. However, these tools occasionally spill over beyond the intended recipients and affect guiltless supply chain members, jeopardizing the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion in ...

Effect of Iranian Bt cotton on life table of Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Alyrodidae) and Cry 1Ab detection in the whitefly honeydew [PDF]

open access: yesArthropods, 2016
Transgenic cotton expressing the Cry 1Ab protein of Bacillus thuringiensis developing against Helocoverpa armigera may be affect on secondary pest such as Bemisia tabaci. In this study effects of Bt cotton on demographic parameters of B.

Feeding and dispersal behavior of the cotton leafworm, Alabama argillacea (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), on Bt and non-Bt cotton: implications for evolution and resistance management.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The host acceptance of neonate Alabama argillacea (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae to Bt cotton plants exerts a strong influence on the potential risk that this pest will develop resistance to Bt cotton. This will also determine the efficiency of

Effect of Bt cotton on nutrient dynamics under varied soil type

open access: yesItalian Journal of Agronomy, 2011
Since transgenic cotton was first grown commercially in India in 1996, the areas cultivated have increased rapidly around the world. Bt cotton is produced by inserting a synthetic version of a gene from the naturally occurring soil bacterium Bacillus ...

Transgenic Bt Cotton Does Not Disrupt the Top-Down Forces Regulating the Cotton Aphid in Central China. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Top-down force is referred to arthropod pest management delivered by the organisms from higher trophic levels. In the context of prevalent adoption of transgenic Bt crops that produce insecticidal Cry proteins derived from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), it

Impact of transgenic cottons expressing cry1Ac on soil biological attributes

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2013
Three transgenic Bt cotton hybrids (RCH-2 Bt, Bunny Bt and NHH 44 Bt) expressing cry1Ac gene were evaluated for their effects on soil biological, microbiological and diversity attributes at 0-15 cm and 15-30 cm soil depth under field conditions.

Drop-off behaviour of Bt-resistant and Bt-susceptibleHelicoverpa armigera(Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae on Bt-cotton and non-Bt cotton plants

open access: yesBulletin of Entomological Research, 2022
AbstractThe highest natural mortality rate of larval Lepidoptera in field populations occurs in the first instar, but it is highly variable. The pattern and degree of survival is not easily predicted but depends on their ability to establish on host plants.

Effects of soil salinity on rhizosphere soil microbes in transgenic Bt cotton fields

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2017
With increased cultivation of transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton in the saline alkaline soil of China, assessments of transgenic crop biosafety have focused on the effects of soil salinity on rhizosphere microbes and Bt protein residues.
