Abstract
A method of preventing damage to the shoots and foliage of a plant by a pest includes treating a seed having an exogenous gene that encodes for the production of a protein having activity against European corn borer or corn root worm with a composition comprising at least one pyrethrin or synthetic pyrethroid that is selected on the basis of having an activity against an insect other than European corn borer or corn root worm. Treated seeds are also provided.
