Molecular Genetic Basis of Lab- and Field-Selected Bt Resistance in Pink Bollworm. [PDF]
Insects, 2023 Transgenic crops producing insecticidal proteins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) control some important insect pests. However, evolution of resistance by pests reduces the efficacy of Bt crops. Here we review resistance to Bt cotton in the
