Unique Mode of Action is Key for Resistance Management Bts contain both Cry-proteins and spores, which enter the Lepidoptera’s gut during feeding. Cry-proteins only dissolve in the uniquely high pH of the Lepidoptera’s mid-gut and will not affect beneficial insects and other non-target organisms. Cry-proteins bind to specific receptors on cells lining the mid-gut and then insert into the cell membrane forming pores, which quickly stops feeding. Pore formation increases the permeability of the mid-gut lining causing it to rupture. This allows viable spores and gut microbes to invade the insect’s body causing sepsis and death. There is no known cross resistance between the Bt mode of action and any other class of insecticides, making DiPel DF and XenTari some of the most effective tools for managing resistance. Each Cry-Protein can Target a Different Binding Site in the Lepidoptera Mid-Gut
