Popis: 1.Overview and PurposeWe present ABM-IRM, an agent-based modeling approach to insect resistance management. ABM-IRM is one of the agent-based models that we have developed to simulate the insect resistance of Asian Corn Borer (ACB) to BT corn. The model was implemented using NetLogo, an agent-based programming environment (Wilensky, 1999). We created our model using simple rules to find emergent patterns (Wilensky and Rand, 2015) based on refuge types and pyramid BT events that may aid in controlling the resistance of ACB to BT Corn. Following how the Overview, Design concepts, and Details (ODD) protocol was used in presenting a related ABM paper as guide (Anderson and Dragićević, 2015), the following sections are organized as follows: Section 2 covers the typologies of the agents, Section 3 discusses the process overview, and Section 4 highlights our results and emergent patterns.
