This quote is taken from a Monsanto press release on VT:

A huge benefit of these YieldGard VT products is that you get a stacked trait hybrid with a highly-active and a more consistent promoter of the rootworm gene. The promoter is a kind-of biotech switch that turns on the gene to produce the insect control protein and more effectively distribute it throughout the root system. Higher and more consistent levels of the protein are present in YieldGard VT roots to more effectively control corn rootworm pests. In other words, greater technology, with more powerful, more consistent root protection. This gives farmers better rootworm control in their fields.
