These findings suggest that C. suppressalis has the potential to develop resistance to Cry1C, although the rate of evolution is low. The pyramiding of the cry1A and cry1C genes in Bt rice is an effective strategy for delaying the evolution of resistance in C. suppressalis and sustainably maintaining the utility of Bt rice. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
