Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis of Atlantic Coast striped bass.

abstract：:The phytophagous insects that damage crops are often polyphagous, feeding on several types of crop and on weeds. The refuges constituted by noncrop host plants may be useful in managing the evolution in pest species of resistance to the Bacillus thuringiensis toxins produced by transgenic crops. However, the benefits ...
