Cross-resistance of Cry1Ab-selected Asian corn borer to other Cry toxins (2010)
Journal Article
Xu, L., Wang, Z., Zhang, J., Ferry, N., & Gatehouse, A. (2010). Cross-resistance of Cry1Ab-selected Asian corn borer to other Cry toxins. Journal of Applied Entomology, 134(5), 429-438. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1439-0418.2010.01517.x

The Asian corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis (Guene´e) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is the most important insect pest of maize in China. Despite the proven track record of biotech Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) maize to provide an effective means to control l...

Characterisation of adult green lacewing (Chrysoperla carnea) digestive physiology: impact of a cysteine protease inhibitor and a synthetic pyrethroid (2010)
Journal Article
Mulligan, E., Ferry, N., Jouanin, L., Romeis, J., & Gatehouse, A. (2010). Characterisation of adult green lacewing (Chrysoperla carnea) digestive physiology: impact of a cysteine protease inhibitor and a synthetic pyrethroid. Pest Management Science, 66(3), 325-36. https://doi.org/10.1002/ps.1879

This study demonstrates the potential for pest management to impact on predators, but importantly it highlights the ability of the predator to detoxify/respond to treatments with different modes of action. In this case, exposure to an insecticide car...
