Long-Term Assessment of the Effects of Transgenic Bt Cotton on the Abundance of Nontarget Arthropod Natural Enemies
TL;DR: The effects of Bt cotton on a representative nontarget community are minor, especially in comparison with the alternative use of broad-spectrum insecticides, according to a 6-yr field study in Arizona.

Seasonal Expression Profiles of Insecticidal Protein and Control Efficacy Against Helicoverpa armigera for Bt Cotton in the Yangtze River Valley of China
TL;DR: The results showed that the toxin content in Bt cotton changed significantly over time, and that the structure, growth stage, and variety were significant sources of variability.

Long-Term Assessment of the Effects of Transgenic Bt Cotton on the Function of the Natural Enemy Community
TL;DR: Long-term studies in Arizona showed essentially no effects of Bt cotton on natural enemy function in Arizona cotton and showed that minor reductions in density of several predator taxa in Btotton observed in a companion study may have little ecological meaning relative to natural enemy impact on key pests in the system.

Bollgard® and Bollgard II® Efficacy in Near Isogenic Lines of 'DP50' Upland Cotton in Arizona
TL;DR: Cotton lines with transgenes (Cry1Ac & Cry2Ab) separately and combined demonstrated a high degree of efficacy and agronomic performance for usage in Arizona against PBW, and showed better (at least 10-fold) efficacy than the single-gene lines againstPBW large larvae infestation.
