Diversity of gut–microorganisms in Bt–resistant and Bt–susceptible larvae of the maize stem borer (Busseola fusca) (Lepidoptera : Noctuidae)
(North-West University, 2012)
Maize is one of Africa’s main food sources. It is therefore important to protect this crop
against pests such as the maize stem borer Busseola fusca. Genetically modified Bacillus
thuringiensis (Bt) maize has been shown ...
A PCR detection method for mutations in receptor–protein genes from Busseola fusca potentially involved in Bt–resistance
(North-West University, 2012)
Genetically modified (GM) crops attracted interest globally when use of these crops resulted in significant increases in yield and production. These increases were due to protection of crops from pests, weeds and diseases. ...
