Development of transgenic collards (Brassica oleracea L., var. acephala) expressing a cry1Ac or cry1C Bt gene for control of the diamondback moth
2005-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Collards (Brassica oleracea var. acephala) are an important vegetable crucifer produced worldwide for human consumption, and one subject to severe injury by Lepidoptera. We have produced Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)-transgenic collard lines that have the potential to be used either for direct control or as a "dead end" trap crop for Lepidoptera. To produce collard lines expressing Bt genes, a cry1Ac Bt gene, in ass...
