Abstract excerpt
Transgenic corn, Zea mays (L.), expressing insecticidal toxins such as Cry1Fa, from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt corn) targeting Ostrinia nubilalis (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) resulted in over 20 years of management success. The first case of practical field-evolved resistance by O. nubilalis to a Bt corn toxin, Cry1Fa, was discovered in Nova Scotia, Canada, in 2018. Laboratory-derived Cry1Fa-resistance by O....
