Abstract: Presented study compares impacts of the GM maize MON 88017 and the non-transgenic maize on the non-target invertebrates. The Diabrotica-resistant and herbicide-tolerant GM maize may become important for most of Europe as the spred of Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte continues but its implementation has been hindered by fears of undesirable environmental effects. I confirmed that MON88017 expresses the insecticidal Cry3Bb1 toxin but I found no evidence of any negative impact on the monitored species. Both the composition and the species abundances of invertebrate communities were similar to those in the stands of the conventional non-transgenic maize varieties.
