Global programs / Agricultural Biotechnology Support Program II (ABSP II)
Plants expressing Cry proteins from the bacterium, Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), have become a major tactic for controlling insect pests in maize and cotton globally. DEC abstract (PB-AAE-687)
The goal of the program was to develop new genetically modified crop varieties for which there was demand from developing countries.1 Cornell University led the program.1 The program's consortium said it would support expertise development in target countries in research and policy development.2

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate.
Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
A few documents to read first. Each opens in the side panel, with the PDF to download.
