Bayer CropScience and Syngenta sign global cotton technology licensing agreement
Bayer CropScience and Syngenta have entered into a long-term business agreement relating to a key plant biotechnology trait. Under the agreement, Syngenta has granted Bayer CropScience a worldwide, non-exclusive license for use of VIPCOTTM insect control technology in cotton.
The VIPCOT technology expresses two insecticidal proteins that are highly effective against a number of important cotton pests, including cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa zea) and tobacco budworm (Heliothis virescens). The addition of VIPCOT will complement Bayer’s existing portfolio of cotton solutions.
