The results of this study did not indicate adverse effects of the
consumption of single and stacked Bt-maize pollen on the survival
and prepupae weight of in vitro reared A. mellifera larvae. At a
realistic exposure dose, the 120 h survivorship of Bt-pollen treated
larvae was 100% until the prepupae phase (Fig. 1). At the
prepupae stage, where larvae had terminated feeding, digesting
and growing, were no indications of a sublethal Bt-pollen effect on
the weight of the prepupae (Fig. 2).

from the report = no effect of Bt pollen.
