In vivo competition assays between Vip3 proteins confirm the occurrence of shared binding sites in Spodoptera littoralis
Abstract Due to their different specificity, the use of Vip3 proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis in combination with the conventionally used Cry proteins in crop protection is being essential to counteract the appearance of insect resistance. Therefore, understanding the mode of action of Vip3 prot...
