Some mathematical models for the estimation of the effects of Cry1Ab and Cry1F Bt-maize exposure in the biodiversity are examined. Novel results about these models are obtained and described in this note. The exact formula for the proportion of population that suffers mortality exposed either to Cry1Ab or Cry1AF pollen is derived. Moreover, regarding Cry1F pollen effects, the species sensitivity of Lepidoptera is discussed.
