Corrected percent mortality on transgenic cotton was calculated using Abbot’s formula {100 × [(% mortality transgenic/% mortality non-transgenic)/(100 - % mortality non-transgenic)]}, rounded to the nearest percent, and assigned to the following categories: High = mortality ≥ 90%; Moderate = 60–89% mortality; Low = mortality < 60%; No effect = transgenic cotton had no effect on the pest.

Details on calculations are presented in Appendix A. Cultivars Cry1A and sGK321 are not included because mortality data were not available. Similarly, Earias spp., Diparopsis spp., jassids, whiteflies, and thrips were excluded.
