Abstract excerpt
Cadherins are a class of receptor proteins for Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1A toxins. Disruption of a cadherin gene (Ha_BtR) is associated with Cry1Ac resistance in the cotton bollworm Helicoverpa armigera [Xu, X., Yu, L., Wu, Y., 2005. Disruption of a cadherin gene associated with resistance to Cry1Ac delta-endotoxin of B. thuringiensis in H. armigera. Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 71, 948-954]. Determination of the...
