Spatio-Temporal Variation in Landscape Composition May Speed Resistance Evolution of Pests to Bt Crops

Transgenic crops that express insecticide genes from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) are used worldwide against moth and beetle pests. Because these engineered plants can kill over 95% of susceptible larvae, they can rapidly select for resistance. Here, we use a model for a pyramid two-toxin Bt crop to...
