  abstract = {{S}ince transgenic crops expressing {B}acillus thuringiensis ({B}t) toxins were first released, resistance evolution leading to failure in control of pests populations has been observed in a number of species. {F}ield resistance of the moth {B}usseola fusca was acknowledged 8 years after {B}t maize was introduced in {S}outh {A}frica. {S}ince then, field resistance of this corn borer has been observed at several locations, raising questions about the nature, distribution and dynamics of the resistance trait. {U}sing genetic markers, our study identified four outlier loci clearly associated with resistance. {I}n addition, genetic structure at neutral loci reflected extensive gene flow among populations. {A} realistically parameterised model suggests that resistance could travel in space at speed of several kilometres a year. {M}arkers at outlier loci delineated a geographic region associated with resistance spread. {T}his was an area of approximately 100 km radius, including the location where resistance was first reported. {C}ontrolled crosses corroborated these findings and showed significant differences of progeny survival on {B}t plants depending on the origin of the resistant parent. {L}ast, our study suggests diverse resistance mutations, which would explain the widespread occurrence of resistant larvae in {B}t fields across the main area of maize production in {S}outh {A}frica.},
