First record of Peridroma saucia Hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in transgenic soybeans

Paedarium subauratum (Blanchard, 1943) comb. nov. (Diptera, Tachinidae) parasitoid of the Southern armyworm Spodoptera eridania (Stoll): taxonomic redescription and biology, with notes on the genus Paedarium Aldrich, 1926

“…The other area (Bt area) was planted with the variety Syn13671 IPRO in the first crop season, and with variety M5917 IPRO and Syn1561 IPRO in the second crop season. Varieties from Bt area provide tolerance to the herbicide glyphosate and express Cry1Ac protein of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) which confers resistance to target lepidopteran species (Takahashi et al, 2019). The collected caterpillars were individualized in polyethylene containers (3 × 7 cm) and fed with soybean leaves from the same variety in which they were collected.…”

Management of Chloridia virescens (Noctuidae) in blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) to promote sustainable cultivation in Peru: A Review

“…For example, the appearance of Peridroma saucia Hübner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is described for the first time in Brazil, feeding on genetically modified soybean cultivars (Takahashi et al 2019). After five years of research , Downes et al (2010), , found a significant exponential increase in the frequency of alleles that confer resistance to Cry2Ab in Australian field populations of Helicoverpa punctigera, since the adoption of a Bt cotton; in addition, the frequency of alleles of resistance to the cry2Ab protein in populations from cultivation areas is eight times higher than those found for populations from regions not cultivated with Bt; a similar result was found for Diatraea saccharalis Fabricius (Grimi et al 2018).…”
