• Breeding Insect Resistant Crops for Sustainable Agriculture (2017, background): “In an early effort to pyramid two BPH-resistant genes, Bph1 and Bph2 in background of a japonica line indicated that resistance level of the pyramided line was equivalent to that of the line carrying Bph1 alone, but showed a higher level of resistance than the line carrying Bph2 (Sharma et al. 2004)”
• Modern Biotechnology as an Integral Supplement to Conventional Plant Breeding: The Prospects and Challenges (2006, background): “…engineering has the potential to accelerate crop improvement and has already yielded encouraging results (e.g., Jauhar andChibbar, 1999;Muthukrishnan et al., 2001; Repellin et al., 2001; Dahleen et al., 2001; Janakiraman et al., 2002; Patnaik and Khurana, 2003; Wesseler, 2003; Sharma et al., 2004).”
• Climate Change Effects on Insects: Implications for Crop Protection and Food Security (2014, background): “…for the failure of insect control in transgenic crops may be inadequate production of the toxin protein, effect of the environment on transgene expression, Bt-resistant insect populations, and development of resistance because of inadequate management (Sharma and Ortiz 2000; Sharma et al. 2004).”
