The use of Bacillus thuringiensis in plant protection: prospects and limitations

Publisher:

Committee on Biotechnology PAS ; Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry PAS

Abstract:

Taking into account the protection of natural environment, it may beexpected that the use of Bacillus thuringiensis toxins to control pest insects willbe increased. It results from the discovery of novel toxins with different activityspectra and from the creation of more active toxins with the use of genetic engeeniering techniques. Besides, the introduction of transgenic plants such ascotton, potato, tomato, tobacco and others producing bacterial toxins againstmore important species of pest insects will significantly reduce the applicationof chemical insecticides.
