Soybean with stacked events DAS-444Ø6-6 × DAS-81419-2 expressing Cry1Ac/Cry1F Bt proteins provide population suppression of S. eridania and S. cosmioides. However, this Bt soybean had minimal effects on S. albula, and is unlikely to have negative population-level effects on this species. It is expected that under field conditions, other control tactics must be integrated with Cry1Ac/Cry1F-soybean for the management of these Spodoptera species. © 2020 The Authors.
