  • Publication number: 20030186813
    Abstract: A method to protect corn against feeding damage by one or more pests includes the treatment of corn seed having a transgenic event that is targeted against at least one of the pests with a pesticide in an amount that is effective against the same or another of the one or more pests. Seeds having such protection are also disclosed, as well as a means for deploying a non-transgenic refuge crop into a field of transgenic crops.

  • Patent number: 5763245
    Abstract: 3-Hydroxysteroid oxidase in combination with Bacillus thuringiensis CryIA(b) or CryIA(c) crystal proteins or polypeptides controls insects, particularly lepidopterans. The combination when applied to larvae of several lepidopterans indicated significant effects on mortality and stunting and indicated responses that were statistically significant over those expected from additive, independent action. Cholesterol oxidase and CryIA(b) crystal protein were also effective against black cutworm neonates when co-expressed in transgenic corn and tested in a detached leaf assay.
