Since the first X-ray structure of Cry3Aa was revealed in 1991, numerous structures of B.
thuringiensis toxins have been determined and published. In recent years, functional studies …

Bacillus thuringiensis is well known as an effective bio-insecticidal bacterium. However, the
roles of B. thuringiensis to control plant diseases are not paid great attention to. In recent …

The toxin proteins produced by Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) are the most broadly used natural
insecticides in agriculture. To investigate the potential use of vegetative and crystal toxins to …

ABSTRACT A total of 119 Bacillus thuringiensis strains (83 type strains and 26 native
isolates), as well as five B. cereus group species, were analyzed by repetitive extragenic …

Whole-culture extracts of Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner strains were assayed against larval
and adult Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura), an important invasive pest of many thin-skinned …

Rhizobacterial diversity is an indicator of soil health and in turn it is influenced by the host
crops, edaphic factors and weather. The present investigation reports the diversity of …

This study aimed to evaluate strains of the entomopathogenic fungus Purpureocillium

A large number of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) isolates have been obtained from soil samples
in China. The flagellar antigen serotypes, cry genes and crystal proteins of 570 Bt isolates …

Ever since the discovery of the first Bacillus thuringiensis strain capable of killing mosquito
larvae, namely, B. thuringiensis var israelensis, there are several reports from different parts …

Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) has played an important role in biocontrol of pests. However,
insecticidal activity of B. thuringiensis against locusts has been rarely reported. Bt strain BTH …
