ABC transporter mutations in Cry1F-resistant fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) do not result in altered susceptibility to selected small molecule pesticides.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Transgenic crops producing Cry and Vip3 insecticidal proteins from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis provide effective control of the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith. However, cases of practical S. frugiperda resistance to transgenic corn producing Cry1F, Cry1Ab and Cry1A.105 proteins have been reported in the Western hemisphere. Importantly, S. frugiperda resistance to Cry1F corn...
