Feeding experience on hairy vetch induces a loss of host-specific adaptation to maize and changes in the gut microbiota communities of the fall armyworm

Green manure application improves insect resistance of subsequent crops through the optimization of soil nutrients and rhizosphere microbiota

While previous studies have already demonstrated the direct effects of GM crops on the growth potential of herbivorous insects, 37 , 49 , 50 our study focused on examining the effects of applying GM on the development, survival, and fecundity of herbivorous insects feeding on subsequent crops. In the present study, GM application had a significant effect on the performance of FAWs fed on subsequent maize crops.…”
