From 2006 through 2010, transgenic cotton containing Cry1Ab, Cry2Ae, and both Cry1Ab and Cry2Ae (TwinLinkTM) were evaluated for efficacy against the beet and fall armyworm both using natural infestations and various laboratory bioassays. Results consistantly show that cotton containing both Cry1Ab and Cry2Ae provided significantly higher mortality to both species compared to Cry1Ab alone or conventional cotton.
