Acquisition of Cry1Ac protein by non-target arthropods in Bt soybean fields. [PDF]
Soybean tissue and arthropods were collected in Bt soybean fields in China at different times during the growing season to investigate the exposure of arthropods to the plant-produced Cry1Ac toxin and the transmission of the toxin within the food web ...

Where Is Scientific Evidence in Support of Refuge Size Reduction for Pyramided Bt Crops? [PDF]
Genetically modified plants expressing insecticidal Cry proteins originating from a soil-dwelling bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) provide a powerful tool for managing insect pests. Unfortunately, insect ability to develop resistance to insecticidal

Genetic engineering for increasing resistance of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) to pod borer (Helicoverpa armigera) [PDF]
Pod borer is one of the main factors for yield decrease of chickpea. Therefore, breeding ofchickpea for resistance to this pest is important. Modified cry1Ac gene of Bacillus thuringiensis inpCry1Ac-nptII plasmid containing twin T-DNA for cry1Ac and ...

Susceptibility of the Asian Corn Borer, Ostrinia Furnacalis, to Bacillus Thuringiensis Toxin CRY1AC [PDF]
The larval susceptibility of the Asian corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis (Guenee) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), to a Bacillus thuringiensis protein (Cry1Ac) was evaluated using insect feeding bioassays. The founding population of O.

Genetically engineered cotton and corn plants producing insecticidal Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxins kill some key insect pests. Yet, evolution of resistance by pests threatens long-term insect control by these transgenic Bt crops.

Evolution of resistance by pests has diminished the efficacy of transgenic crops producing insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). In China, where transgenic cotton producing Bt toxin Cry1Ac has been planted since 1997, field control ...

Epistasis confers resistance to Bt toxin Cry1Ac in the cotton bollworm [PDF]
AbstractEvolution of resistance by insect pests reduces the benefits of extensively cultivated transgenic crops that produce insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). Previous work showed that resistance to Bt toxin Cry1Ac, which is produced by transgenic cotton, can be conferred by mutations disrupting a cadherin protein that binds this ...

Aedes cadherin receptor that mediates Bacillus thuringiensis Cry11A toxicity is essential for mosquito development. [PDF]
Aedes cadherin (AaeCad, AAEL024535) has been characterized as a receptor for Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis (Bti) Cry11A toxins. However, its role in development is still unknown.

Quantification of Cry1Ac Protein in Bt Eggplant Fruits
The cultivation of genetically engineered crops has been expanded rapidly in worldwide in a very short span of time. Bt eggplant is a transgenic eggplant created by inserting a crystal protein gene Cry1Ac from the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis.

The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, is a cosmopolitan pest and the first species to develop field resistance to toxins from the gram-positive bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). Although previous work has suggested that mutations of ATP-binding
