Responses of gypsy moth (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae) and forest tent caterpillar (Lepidoptera: Lasiocampidae) to transgenic poplar, Populus spp., containing a Bacillus thuringiensis d-endotoxin gene

Transgenic Populus plants (clone NC5339) expressing a Bacillus thuringiensis d-endotoxin gene significantly reduced feeding and weight gain by gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (L.), and the forest tent caterpillar, Malacosoma disstria Hubner. Forest tent caterpillar larvae also experienced significant m...
