Abstract: A computer device is provided for implementing a system configured to provide pest management information used in pest management decision-making related to a site-specific crop of interest. The computer device receives a pest input value for each of a plurality of pest populations. The pest input values correspond to pest sampling data associated with the pest populations for the site-specific crop. The computer device further determines a multiple-pest economic threshold value associated with the site-specific crop from the pest input values. The computer device further determines a predicted investment cost value from the multiple-pest economic threshold value, wherein the predicted investment cost is indicative of the return on investment associated with use of a pest control strategy for the site-specific crop. The computer device further provides an indicia of the predicted investment cost value according to the pest input values. Associated systems and methods are also provided.

Abstract: A method of improving the vigor or yield of a crop plant is disclosed herein. The method involves introgressing a transgenic event comprising transgenes that encode an insecticidal protein and selectable marker protein into a crop plant, wherein the transgenic event and/or a protein thereof modulates in a transgenic crop plant tolerance to at least one abiotic stress condition when grown in a location essentially free of an insect pest population that is susceptible to the insecticidal protein.
