Serial passage of a Helicoverpa armigera nucleopolyhedrovirus in Helicoverpa zea cell cultures
The serial passaging of baculoviruses in cell lines numerous times can result in a variety of mutations or defective viral populations becoming predominant in the cultures.

Forecasting interannual abundance of Helicoverpa zea (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). [PDF]
Abstract Corn earworm, Helicoverpa zea Boddie (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is a common herbivore that causes economic damage to agronomic and specialty crops across North America. The interannual abundance of H. zea is closely linked to climactic variables that influence overwintering survival, as well as within-season host plant ...

Resistance Allele Frequency of Helicoverpa zea to Vip3Aa Bacillus thuringiensis Protein in the Southeastern U.S. [PDF]
Helicoverpa zea is a major target pest of Bt crops expressing Cry and/or Vip3Aa proteins in the U.S.A. Widespread practical resistance of H. zea to the Cry1 and Cry2 proteins makes Vip3Aa the only effective Bt protein against this pest. Understanding the

Factors Affecting Population Dynamics of Helicoverpa zea (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in a Mixed Landscape with Bt Cotton and Peanut. [PDF]
In North America, weather and host-plant abundance drive the population dynamics of the migratory pest Helicoverpa zea. The objectives of this study were to (i) estimate monthly abundance of H.

Early Warning of Resistance to Bt Toxin Vip3Aa in Helicoverpa zea. [PDF]
Evolution of resistance by pests can reduce the benefits of crops genetically engineered to produce insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). Because of the widespread resistance of Helicoverpa zea to crystalline (Cry) Bt toxins in the United States, the vegetative insecticidal protein Vip3Aa is the only Bt toxin produced by Bt corn and ...

Challenging the long-held "pied piper" hypothesis: evidence of southward migration of corn earworm (<i>Helicoverpa zea</i>) in North America. [PDF]
Migration plays an important role in the ecology of insect pests, including Helicoverpa zea, a major pest of multiple crops across the U.S. The long-standing “pied piper” hypothesis proposes that H.
