Samples of bollworm and tobacco budworm populations were collected from cotton, corn, peanuts, and tobacco fields throughout Georgia during the summer of 2009. Larvae and moths from those field-collected samples were assayed for susceptibility to MVPII (Cry1Ac), Tracer (spinosad), cypermethrin, and lambda-cyhalothrin. Results will be compared to baseline data collected between 1995-1999 and 2003-2004.
