How to build the non-host plant for stability in insect resistance management.

Abstract excerpt

We consider using non-host plants that express both a toxin and oviposition deterrence for to increase stability for insect resistance management. The two traits reinforce each other ecologically. We used a two-gene model to evaluate this combination of traits. When toxin resistance was recessive or partially recessive, even moderate levels of oviposition deterrence extended time to resistance. When sensitivity...
