Pest management

deploying two or more toxins with different modes of action in one crop so insects resistant to one are killed by another, slowing resistance evolution.

In pest management, pyramid strategy refers to deploying two or more toxins with different modes of action in one crop so insects resistant to one are killed by another, slowing resistance evolution. This meaning comes from Roush (1998) in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences.[1]
