Climate change and managing insect pests and beneficials in agricultural systems
Abstract Climate change is expected to alter pressure from insect pests and the effectiveness of insect pollinators across diverse agricultural systems globally. In response to warming, insects are undergoing or are projected to undergo shifts in their geographic ranges, voltinism, abundance, and phenology.

The cry1‐knockout strain (Cry1‐KO) of Plutella xylostella was developed by using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. No daily temporal oscillation of cry1 was observed in Geneva 88 (G88) and Cry1‐KO, and cry1 mean daily transcription of Cry1‐KO was lower than that of G88.
