NOVEL BACILLUS THURINGIENSIS ISOLATE DENOTED B.t.PS158C2, ACTIVE AGAINST LEPIDOPTERAN PESTS, AND GENES ENCODING LEPIDOPTERAN-ACTIVE TOXINS
A novel B.t. toxin gene toxic to lepidopteran insects has been cloned from a novel lepidopteran-active B. thuringiensis microbe. The DNA encoding the B.t. toxin can be used to transform various prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes to express the B.t. toxin. These recombinant microbes can be used to c...

Summary: | A novel B.t. toxin gene toxic to lepidopteran insects has been cloned from a novel lepidopteran-active B. thuringiensis microbe. The DNA encoding the B.t. toxin can be used to transform various prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes to express the B.t. toxin. These recombinant microbes can be used to control lepidopteran insects in various environments. |
