Susceptibility of Field Populations of Eggplant Fruit and Shoot Borer (<i>Leucinodes orbonalis</i> Guenée) to Cry1Ac, the Protein Expressed in Bt Eggplant (<i>Solanum melongena</i> L.) in Bangladesh

Susceptibility of Field Populations of Eggplant Fruit and Shoot Borer (<i>Leucinodes orbonalis</i> Guenée) to Cry1Ac, the Protein Expressed in Bt Eggplant (<i>Solanum melongena</i> L.) in Bangladesh

Eggplant (<i>Solanum melongena</i> Linn.), or brinjal, was engineered to express an insecticidal protein (Cry1Ac) from <i>Bacillus thuringiensis</i> (Bt) and commercialized in Bangladesh on a limited basis in 2014. As part of an insect resistance management strategy, studies...
