VOLUME 3 – Resistance Monitoring Data from Moths Collected in
Pheromone Traps

DATA OBJECTIVES:

	Data from systematic monitoring of resistance in moths detected in
pheromone traps within eradication zones, using molecular biological
methods to detect the mutations that have been shown to be associated
with pink bollworm resistance to Bt cotton in Arizona (i.e., three
resistance alleles associated with mutations in the cadherin gene)
should be provided.
