Bt cotton area contraction drives regional pest resurgence, crop loss, and pesticide use by Lu, Yanhui, Wyckhuys, Kris A.G., Yang, Long, Liu, Bing, Zeng, Juan, Jiang, Yuying, Desneux, Nicolas, Zhang, Wei, Wu, Kongming

“…Here, we detail a resurgence of the cosmopolitan bollworm Helicoverpa armigera following a contraction of Bt cotton area in dynamic agro-landscapes over 2007–2019 in North China Plain. An 80% reduction in Bt cotton was mirrored in a 1.9-fold increase of ambient H. armigera population levels, culminating in 1.5–2.1-fold higher yield loss and a 2.0–4.4-fold increase in pesticide use frequency in non-Bt crops (i.e. maize, peanut, soybean). …”
