• Bt maize expressing Cry3Bb1 does not harm the spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, or its ladybird beetle predator, Stethorus punctillum (2010, background): “Sensitive insect bioassays with the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), have confirmed that the Cry3Bb1 contained in T. urticae has retained its full biological activity (Meissle and Romeis, 2009a).”
• Non‐target risk assessment of Bt crops – Cry protein uptake by aphids (2011, background): “For spider mites, Cry protein levels (per lg FW) have been found to be in the order of magnitude of that in leave tissue or even above (Dutton et al. 2002, 2004; Obrist et al. 2006a,c; Torres and Ruberson 2008; Meissle and Romeis 2009b; Li and Romeis 2010).”
