Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of several technologies for management of corn rootworm larvae. Evaluation of Bt hybrids included DeKalb YieldGard VT Triple RIB, DeKalb SmartStax RIB, Pioneer Optimum AcreMax1, and Pioneer Optimum AcreMax XTreme. All of these products, along with corn lacking a rootworm active Bt trait, were tested with and without the soil-applied insecticide Aztec-HC 9.34G.
