Susceptibility of immature monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Danainae), to predation by Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) (2003, unknown): “Yeargan, 1998; Wold et al., 2001).”
A Comparison of Arthropod Communities in Transgenic Bt and Conventional Cotton in Australia (2005, result): “Although there are reports of no change in damsel bug numbers in some Bt crops such as corn (Wold et al. 2001), our Þndings are in agreement with Naranjo (2005), who reported a reduction in the number of damselbugs ina5-yr study inBtcotton, asdidDalyand Buntin (2005) in their multi-year study on Bt…”
Impacts of Bt crops on non-target invertebrates and insecticide use patterns (2009, unknown): “[66–70]), herbivores [23, 71] or detritivores [72, 73].”
Impact of Transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis Corn and Crop Phenology on Five Nontarget Arthropods (2005, background): “Conversely, Wold et al. (2001) detected a signiÞcant trend for higher densities of C. maculata in non-Bt sweet corn compared withBt sweet corn.”
Assessing the risks of insect resistant transgenic plants on entomophagous arthropods Bt-maize expressing Cry1Ab as a case study (2003, background): “Although a decrease of the European corn borer in Bt-maize fields has been shown to lead to a reduction in parasitoids of the target pest (Wold et al., 2001; Bourguet et al., 2002), this is to be expected when using Bt-maize or any other pest control method.”
Effects of spinosad and indoxacarb on survival, development, and reproduction of the multicolored Asian lady beetle (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) (2005, background): “The multicolored Asian lady beetle, Harmonia axyridis (Pallas), is a common predator in sweet corn (Musser and Shelton, 2003a; Wold et al., 2001), preying on O.”
The potential impacts of the arrival of the harlequin ladybird, Harmonia axyridis (Pallas) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), in Britain (2006, unknown): “Investigations considering the interaction between H. axyridis and insect-resistant transgenic crops have shown negative effects on H. axyridis to be negligible (Wold et al., 2001; Musser & Shelton, 2003; Ferry et al., 2003).”
The multicolored Asian lady beetle, Harmonia axyridis: A review of its biology, uses in biological control, and non-target impacts (2003, background): “Densities of H. axyridis on corn modified to express toxins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) specific to Lepidoptera were not significantly different from densities on non-Bt isolines of corn (Musser and Shelton, 2003, Wold et al., 2001).”
Effect of Bacillus thuringiensis Transgenic Corn for Lepidopteran Control on Nontarget Arthropods (2005, background): “Additionally, Wold et al. (2002) showed no consistent signiÞcant differences in Þeld populations of several coccinellids, including C. maculata, H. convergens, C. septempunctata, and H. axyridis in Bt and non-Bt sweet corn.”
