Manipulated Organism: Plants - Cotton

---

Bt cotton showed decreased ability to kill cotton bollworm larvae during flower development and flowering.

Bt cotton had altered protein metabolism and produced less insecticidal toxin in leaves when subjected to high temperatures during boll formation.

Increased resistance to Bt toxin is found in some populations of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa zea)

Glyphosate-resistant cotton showed abnormal reproductive development when sprayed with glyphosate.

Fruiting morphology was altered when glyphosate-resistant cotton was sprayed with glyphosate.

Cotton plants and seeds expressing Bt toxin were found in non-Bt refuges.

Insect-resistant, transgenic cotton was more susceptible to fungal disease than its parent line.

Increased planting of glyphosate-resistant crops and application of glyphosate causes increase in glyphosate-resistant weed species.
