Insect immune resistance to parasitoids
Insect Science, 2008AbstractInsect host—parasitoid interactions involve complex physiological, biochemical and genetic interactions. Against endoparasitoids, immune‐competent hosts initiate a blood cell‐mediated response that quickly destroys the intruders and envelops them in a multilayered melanotic capsule. During the past decade, considerable progress has been made in

Insect-resistant transgenic Pinus radiata
Plant Cell Reports, 2005Transgenic radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) plants containing a Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) toxin gene, crylAc, were produced by means of biolistic transformation of embryogenic tissue. Using the selectable marker gene nptII and corresponding geneticin selection, 20 independent transgenic lines from five genotypes were established.

Soybeans are attacked by several species of sucking and defoliating insects, and the sucking insects are now the main pest of the crop in tropical regions. Each year, insect damage is becoming more frequent considering the high number of species present in the crop due to the lack of adequate pest monitoring and the development of insects resistant to ...

The estimate of worldwide annual yield loss in maize due to pests ranges from 7 to 20%. Insects are among the most important pests of maize at all stages of development, from germination to grain filling, and can even be the main spoilers of grains in storage facilities.

Insect and Nematode Resistance
2009Crops are attacked by parasitic pests, including insects and nematodes causing considerable economic losses worldwide. The global yield loss of crops due to herbivorous insects varies between 5% and 30% depending on crop species, while the economic losses due to plant parasitic nematodes are about US $125 billion annually.

Insect-Resistant Transgenic Cotton
1998Insect-ravaged cotton crops are a dominant concern for the global cotton agricultural community. Pivotal factors leading to extensive cotton damage include discontinued use of many effective pesticides (due to environmental concerns) and rapidly arising insect resistance to the remaining pesticides.
