Effects of transgenic Bt corn varieties with resistance to multiple herbivores honey bees
Project
Project code: 0315215E
Contract period: 01.04.2008
- 31.03.2011
Purpose of research: Applied research
The aim of the project was to investigate the potential effects of the genetically modified Bt maize cultivar MON89034xMON88017 on honeybees. This maize produces three Bt proteins, making it resistant to both the European corn borer and the Western corn rootworm.
