Segregation of European Corn Borer,Ostrinia nubilalis, Aminopeptidase 1, Cadherin, and Bre5-Like Alleles, from a Colony Resistant toBacillus thuringiensisCry1Ab Toxins, are not Associated with F2Larval Weights when Fed a Diet Containing Cry1Ab

Protein receptors may be required for activated Bacillus thuringiensis Cry toxins (Cry1Ab) to bind midgut epithelium prior to pore formation. Single nucleotide polymorphism markers from two Ostrinia nubilalis Hübner (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) midgut peptide receptors, cadherin (OnCad), aminopeptidase N 1 (OnAPN1), and OnBre5 (Onb3GalT5; a β-1,3-galactosyltransferase family 5 member) were used to examine segregation in F2 families derived from...
