Article Synopsis
- Two transgenic rice lines (T2A-1 and T1C-19b) were developed in China to combat lepidopteran pests, specifically targeting the Chilo suppressalis larvae with cry2A and cry1C genes.
- The study found that T2A-1 had the highest levels of Cry proteins, followed by Huahui 1, and then T1C-19b, with Cry protein levels generally higher at early growth stages.
- T1C-19b demonstrated consistent and strong resistance to C. suppressalis throughout various growth stages, suggesting it is a promising candidate for commercial use in pest control.
An investigation was conducted in Xing' an County of Guangxi Province in 2010 to study the occurrence and damage characteristics of two unique migratory pest insects, rice leaffolder (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis) and white-backed planthopper (Sogatella furcifera), in a transgenic Bt rice (cv. HH1 with dual Cry1Ab+Cry1Ac genes) field, taking the corresponding non-transgenic parent (cv. MH63) field as the control.

Ovarian development in female S. exigua was classified into five stages in relation to the postemergence age of the moths.
